A large, brown, and dried plant is laid out on a white sheet of paper. The color palette consists mainly of greens from the grass and the light brown of the plant against the white paper backdrop. The white paper is positioned horizontally on the grass, with part of the plant extending beyond the right edge of the paper near some green foliage in the top right corner. A label is affixed to the paper in the bottom right section.
