A black vertical stripe on the left. It reads in bright red: Take a stand. Kollwitz. The two thirds on the right are filled by a picture, with the second part of the title written vertically in the top right-hand corner. The picture is a black drawing on a beige background and shows a young man energetically raising his right hand to take an oath, his left hand placed on his heart, his hair blowing backwards in the wind.
