Two rectangular, brown, aged book covers with intricate designs, placed side by side on a white surface. The covers have a mix of darker and lighter brown hues. A thin, darker line runs vertically down the center of each cover. Small, rectangular labels are at the top of each cover with illegible text. The designs on the covers appear to be a combination of lines, shapes, and possibly some figures, but they are not clearly defined. The background is a plain white surface. The title "Illustrated Book of One Hundred Poets and Their Poems" and the artist "Okumura Masanobu" are associated with the image.
