The image is a black and white photograph of a rat on a bed. The rat is in the center of the image, with its body facing towards the left side of the frame. It appears to be walking on the bed, with one leg stretched out and the other leg bent at the knee. The bed is covered in crumpled sheets, and there is another rat visible in the background. The image is taken from a low angle, looking up at the rat. The overall mood of the photograph is somber and contemplative.
