Brownish artwork depicting an interior scene with people. Several black silhouettes of people extend from the bottom center. A low table with a checkerboard pattern sits on the left. A thin dotted line runs horizontally through the center. A smaller piece of paper attached to the right bears two black characters. The artwork is surrounded by cream-colored paper and a gold border. Two black squares appear near the bottom-right. Small floral patterns appear below the dotted line. A grid pattern on the bottom left extends outward. A landscape scene with trees appears at the top. A section of the gold border on the right appears to be a seam.
