A large, vertical hanging scroll painting depicts an eagle. The eagle is centered and faces left, looking up. It has a light-colored head, neck, and chest with dark spots on its wings and tail feathers. The eagle's talons grip a branch. A green and gold patterned border surrounds the painting. A branch with pine needles extends from the top-left corner. The background of the painting is beige. Black Japanese calligraphy appears at the top and bottom of the painting. A small red seal stamp is in the bottom-right corner.
