The artwork

A NASA satellite photograph of hardened dunes in a Martian crater dominates the upper two-thirds of the label, rendered in pale tan against rust-red stone with sharp shadows defining the wind-carved ridge patterns. The lower third shifts to a solid rust-brown field holding white sans-serif type, a hexagonal outline containing the numeral '1', and a QR code. The composition splits cleanly between photograph and typographic panel, with the Mars imagery serving as documentary evidence rather than stylized illustration.
