The image shows a vertical composition with two blue rectangular sections, divided by a narrow vertical stripe of a lighter blue color. In the center of lighter stripe, there is an abstract golden circle. The blue areas on either side are textured with small scattered white dots and patches, giving an abstract impression of a cosmic scene.
