Black and white image of a long, dark gray scroll with white writing. The scroll is vertically oriented and appears to be made of paper or silk. It has a rough texture and is frayed at the bottom left corner. The white writing is in a calligraphic style and consists of many lines of text that run vertically down the scroll. The text is written in a language that appears to be Chinese characters. There are two vertical creases in the scroll, suggesting it was once folded. The background of the image is plain white.
