The image depicts a brown deer with white spots standing on all fours, head tilted upwards and mouth open. The deer has a slender neck, long legs, and small hooves. The background features a tree with sparse leaves and a curved branch extending to the left, behind the deer, over a body of water with horizontal lines suggesting ripples. A grassy bank is on the left. The image is in muted colors, primarily shades of brown, with some black lines and a few pinkish-red leaves on the tree. There are Japanese characters at the top and down the left side.
