Black and white sketch on white paper. The paper has a darker border around the edge and is slightly creased at the top. A simple pencil drawing depicts a field bordered on the horizon by trees. The trees are drawn on the left, right, and middle of the horizon. The field takes up most of the image and has no details. The drawing is faint. The image background is plain white.
