The image shows a black and white sketch of a fallen tree. The sketch is drawn on two pages that are side by side, with a vertical line down the middle where the pages meet. The tree trunk is lying horizontally across the sketch, with the left end on the ground and the right end raised. The trunk has several branches and knots, with some areas shaded darker than others. The background of the sketch is light gray. The sketch is titled "Study of a Fallen Tree (from sketchbook)" by David Johnson.
