Black and white sketch of a wave. The sketch is drawn on both pages of an opened book. The left page is blank except for two small black dots on the center crease. On the right page, a wave curls at the top center and to the right. The wave has several lines indicating folds and movement. A dark border surrounds the paper on all sides except the center, where the pages are bound together. The background behind the book is plain white.
