The image shows a spearhead titled "Arrowhead (Yanone)" by an unidentified artist. The spearhead is made of shiny metal and features a pointed tip with flat sides that taper to the point. The base of the spearhead is wider than the tip, with a slight narrowing where it meets the shaft. The shaft appears to be made of wood and has a dark brown color with lighter brown stripes. The background of the image is solid black. The spearhead is positioned vertically in the center of the image.
