A long, brown, torn piece of parchment with black text written in a foreign language. The parchment has three vertical sections; the center section contains an image and the left and right sections contain text. The image depicts a man sitting cross-legged on a platform; he wears a pink garment with yellow accents. He sits under a red canopy; and holds an open book in one hand and a fly whisk in the other. The man on the left wears a pink garment; sits on a low platform; and holds a manuscript. The background of the image is red and gold; and there are several figures on the bottom. There are two red lines; one on either side of the image; and a small square with a white blotch between text sections. The background behind the parchment is gray.
