The flowers have many petals and are clustered together. The leaves are shaped like teardrops with pointed tips. The background of the image is a light gray surface, possibly a table or countertop. A small white rectangle at the bottom center of the image contains black text. The fabric titled "Piece" is by an unknown artist.
