A horizontally oriented watercolor and gouache drawing depicts wildflowers sprawling across a dark brown surface against a flat, dark gray background. Small daubs of bright red flowers and pale green buds emerge from tangled, serrated dark green leaves that splay across the tabletop. In the lower corner to our left, a handwritten signature and the date 1864 appear in dark ink.
