The image is a close-up of a stone monument with the name "Elijah Whitney" carved into it. The monument appears to be located in a cemetery or a park, as there is a black wrought iron railing visible in the foreground. The stone is weathered and has intricate carvings on it, including a lion's head on the left side and a scroll on the right side. Below the name, there is text that reads "The inventor of the Cotton Gin, of useful science and art the efficient." The text is carved in a decorative font and is surrounded by a decorative border. The background is blurred, but it seems to be a grassy area with trees and fallen leaves.
