The image displays a detailed close-up of light gray, textured tree bark, situated in the city of Leipzig, Germany. Horizontal shallow striations are visible across the bark surface. Carved into the bark is a linear series of geometric incisions forming a continuous zigzag pattern. This pattern consists of four distinct upward-pointing triangular peaks connected by three downward-pointing triangular valleys. The carved lines reveal lighter, exposed wood beneath the outer bark, indicative of recent alteration. No individuals, additional objects, or further environmental context are depicted; the focus is exclusively on the incised tree bark.
