Brief Description
Black calligraphy and yellow flowers on light paper, with a patterned border
Detailed Description
A rectangular piece of light-colored paper displays black calligraphy and illustrations of yellow flowers, framed by a patterned border. The calligraphy is arranged in vertical columns, primarily on the upper half and extending downwards. The characters vary in size and style; some are bold and distinct, while others are more fluid and delicate. The largest characters are on the right side, with smaller, more cursive script towards the left. Beneath and interspersed with the calligraphy are illustrations of plants. These plants have thin, grey-green stems with small, dark leaves. At the top of each stem are clusters of small, round, yellow flowers, each dotted with tiny black specks. These flowers form a horizontal band across the lower half of the paper, with some stems reaching higher into the areas between the calligraphy columns. The central paper is surrounded by a wider, light brown border. This border is adorned with a repeating pattern of small, stylized gold floral or leaf motifs, which are evenly spaced across its surface.
