The image is a black and white photograph of a flagpole with the flag of Mexico on it. The flag is waving in the wind and the pole is tall and slender. The sky is visible in the background and the overall mood of the image is somber. The photograph is taken from a low angle, looking up at the flagpole and the flag. On top of the pole, there is a small statue of a bird with its wings spread wide. The statue appears to be made of metal and has intricate details.
