The image shows two large lotus flowers surrounded by lily pads. The color palette consists of shades of brown and light beige, giving the artwork a sepia-toned appearance. The central lotus is positioned slightly to the right, while the second one is to the left, forming a diagonal across the composition with the lily pads filling the background.
