The image depicts an arrangement of amorphous shapes and curved lines scattered across the surface. A central group of blue, petal-like forms can be seen, surrounded by smaller, indistinct shapes that suggest the contours of a necklace. Above these shapes, text reads "Pliny Thayer Lansinguugh." In the lower right corner, there is a faint sketch of an unknown object.
