The image shows a distinctive piece of nose art painted on the white metal fuselage of what appears to be a military aircraft. The artwork depicts a cartoonish green rabbit character with exaggerated buck teeth, holding an orange carrot like a weapon with yellow projectiles flying from it. The character has a comical, aggressive expression typical of World War II-era nose art. The riveted aluminum surface and window frame are visible, along with partial view of other markings including what appears to be "RESCUE" text at the bottom edge. The setting appears to be inside a museum or aboard the preserved USS Hornet aircraft carrier.
