The image displays a composition of vertical and horizontal lines intersecting with swirling, curved shapes in a small section on the bottom right corner of a larger plain background. This creates an abstract effect. The abstracted flag motif is composed of red and white stripes with a blue field containing white stars, while black and white profiles appear textured with dotted patterns and line details.
