There are two large, gold floral medallions visible, one on the bottom right and one on the left. The medallions have a scalloped edge and feature a floral design with leaves and flowers. The background of the image is white, with a thin white border around the textile. In the bottom-right corner, there is a small black text that reads "20.148.569".
