Surrounding the animal are grasses, wildflowers, and low shrubs drawn with delicate strokes, with a small body of water and distant rolling hills in the background. Above, a sparsely hatched sky with faint cloud-like marks fills the upper area. Below the donkey is a block of hand-drawn lines of text arranged in neat stanzas, and a few signatures or names appear near the lower left and center, all integrated into the composition.
