A drought of a spread dog's body on face is set in the center of the composition. It executed by thin brownish lines against a background of unpainted paper. A broad many-color horizontal stripe painted by short blue, yellow, red, lilac, and brown strokes of crayon is depicted over its body. A big inscription is placed in the centers of the upper and lower edges of the sheet: Sabach'ee [dog's] at the top and Nebo [Sky] at the bottom. They are written with black Indian ink in square Cyrillic letters.
