The image is of the blade of a hunting spear by artist Asmat. The blade is white with brown speckles and a darker brown design on the bottom half. The blade is oval-shaped with the tip pointing upwards and is separated into two symmetrical sides by a vertical line down the centre. The bottom of the blade is attached to a brown handle wrapped with woven fibres, with longer fibres hanging down in a brown fringe. The background is a plain grey colour.
