The image features two large rectangular shapes. The top rectangle is dark blue-green, while the lower rectangle is a deep burgundy. The painting has an abstract quality, with the rectangles appearing to float against the lighter edges of the canvas. The rectangles have slightly blurred edges, giving them an ethereal and undefined quality.
