The image is a vintage illustration with two distinct parts. The top portion depicts a flying machine, resembling a small, propeller-driven aircraft. It's shown emitting yellow and red flames from its rear. Below this is a stylized plant of 'Martian design'. It features fire-red flowers with a swirling, ornate shape, and violet-gray leaves. The plant is depicted with a dense, textured base, giving it a somewhat fantastical appearance. The style is reminiscent of early 20th-century scientific illustrations, with a focus on detail and a slightly whimsical aesthetic.
