The artwork shows an American flag folded and encased in a clear plastic dry-cleaning bag. The bag is hung on a metal hanger with a paper tag attached at the top. The flag's stars and stripes are visible through the plastic. The background is a soft, muted pink color, contrasting with the colors of the flag. The composition centers the flag against the plain backdrop.
