Detailed Description
The image displays a horizontal scroll, predominantly light beige in color, with a central drawing of a pair of deer antlers. The antlers are depicted in shades of gray and brown, showing a detailed, branching structure. They are positioned horizontally across the middle of the scroll, with the base of the antlers facing downwards and slightly towards the center. The branches extend upwards and outwards, creating a wide, U-shaped form. To the left of the antlers, there are three red square seals stacked vertically. The top seal is larger, while the two below it are smaller. Each seal contains intricate, stylized characters. To the right of the antlers, a column of black vertical text is present, followed by several more red seals. These seals include a circular one at the top, a rectangular one below it, and two smaller square seals further down. The rightmost section of the scroll features a vertical panel of light gray paper with a subtle, repeating floral or geometric pattern. On this patterned section, a large, prominent red square seal with complex characters is stamped. Further to the right, the scroll continues with plain beige paper, bordered by a thin, light gray line. The entire scroll is framed by a narrow brown border at the top and bottom, with black circular fasteners visible along these edges.
