The image depicts a drawing of a circular plate with an ornamental handle attached at the top. The handle is decorated with two fish and a central crest. The color palette is mainly grey due to pencil shading, creating detailed textures and shadows. The plate is centered within a rectangular frame on the paper, and below it is a small sketch of the plate's side profile with the name "Charles Collens" written in the lower right corner.
