The image shows a stylized artwork with two head-and-shoulders portraits side by side. On the left, there is an older man with a smiling expression and closed eyes, wearing a suit with a tie. The right portrait depicts a man wearing glasses, with short hair, and a neutral expression. The artwork features a monochromatic pink and burgundy color scheme and a decorative frame with the word "BEN-HUR" at the top center, adorned with stars and ornate designs. The background outside the framed portraits is a plain, light color, and the entire composition is signed at the bottom right corner with "E. Peschke '69."
