The image is a pastel sketch of an aurora borealis, dated November 28th, 1893. The background is a pale yellow, and the aurora is depicted as swirling, elongated bands of color. The dominant color is a bright, almost neon yellow, with hints of pale green and a touch of pink/red in some areas. The artist has used a textured, cross-hatching technique with the pastel, creating a sense of movement and energy. The aurora appears to be stretching across the sky in a series of streamers, with the lines curving and overlapping. The overall impression is one of a dynamic and ethereal natural phenomenon. The image is labeled 'Streamers of Aurora Borealis, 28th November 1893. Pastel Sketch.' in the bottom margin.
