Visual Description
A small pink ghost stands in the lower left, head bowed and large teardrops falling and pooling at its feet. Three cups lie broken and overturned on the ground with blue liquid spreading, while two cups remain upright on a decorated shelf above. The shelf is adorned with autumnal leaves, gourds, a steaming blue mug with a heart-shaped swirl of steam, and a tipped dark kettle on the right; a garland hangs between the shelf and the ghost.
