Here's a description of the image:

The image shows a single paintbrush lying horizontally in the center of a gray background. The brush has a cluster of light brown bristles that are slightly splayed at the tip. The bristles are attached to a tarnished silver-colored ferrule, which connects to a slender, red-colored handle. The handle tapers slightly towards the end, and there is faint white text printed on it, indicating "GOLDEN WASH 840 ARLINGTON". The brush appears to be well-used, with some wear and tear visible on the metal and bristles. The background is plain and serves to isolate and highlight the paintbrush.

Here is a description of the image:

The image features a single paintbrush lying horizontally on a plain, grey background. The brush is a size 6, marked "Golden Wash 840 Arlign" on its red handle. The brush's metal ferrule connecting the bristles to the handle has a weathered appearance. The bristles themselves are light brown and appear slightly worn. The overall impression is of a well-used artist's tool.
