The image shows a note written in black ink on a yellowed piece of paper. At the top center, there's a date written in the format "7/24/40," which may represent July 24, 1940. Below the date, occupying most of the space in the center, is a sketch that appears to be a nested set of irregular shapes, with each smaller shape inside a larger one, reminiscent of a cross-section of an onion or layers within a target. Each shape is roughly teardrop or oval-like, and at the center is a small circle or dot. Below the sketch, there's a handwritten definition that reads: "Design is a simple order of Length Width Direction Color carried out in shape" The way "Design" is underscored suggests emphasis on the word as a topic or a title. The handwriting appears confident but casual, indicating it may have been jotted down quickly or informally. The definition provides an elemental breakdown of design into its fundamental components according to the author's perspective.

The image appears to be a sketch or drawing on a yellowed piece of paper. The sketch depicts a simple shape, possibly a triangle or eye-like form, with the word "Design" written below it. The paper also contains a date, "7/24/40", as well as a handwritten note that describes the drawing as "a simple sketch" and provides some additional context about the "Length, Width, Direction, Color" and how it was "carried out in stages."
