Detailed Description
A vertical image depicts a tiger positioned centrally, facing slightly left and downwards. The tiger's head, shoulders, and one front paw are displayed, filling much of the composition. Its fur is a light tan or beige, marked with distinct dark brown to black stripes and spots. The tiger's eyes are green, with dark pupils and surrounding fur. Its nose is dark, and long, thin whiskers extend from its muzzle. The visible front paw, positioned in the lower right, shows dark claws. The background is a plain, unadorned light beige or tan. In the upper left corner, a column of vertical dark text is visible, below which a small, square red seal appears. The top edge of the image features a decorative border with gold patterns on a dark background.
