The image displays four identical green heart shapes arranged in a 2x2 grid against a solid purple background. Each heart contains three lines of white pixelated text: 'cross' at the top, 'xc' in the middle, and 'country' at the bottom. The hearts exhibit minor variations in edge sharpness and internal pixel density across their positions; the top-left heart has slightly softer edges while the bottom-right shows more defined pixelation. All four icons share identical text content and color scheme.
