The image shows a stylized artwork of a profile view of a person, with their head and part of the upper body visible. The person is facing to the left, with their hand touching their head. The facial features are abstract and angular, rendered in bold black lines. The hair is simplified and dark. The person appears to be wearing a garment, with contours extending from the neck downward. The background is textured with dark green and off-white tones, with text at the top reading "Georg Heym" and "UMBRAVITÆ."
