The banner features simple line drawings of black cabs (taxicabs commonly used in London) with additional figures: a person in a wheelchair approaching one cab and a pedestrian walking near another. The background includes stylized buildings, trees, and traffic lights, suggesting an urban setting. The border is yellow with a rounded speech bubble shape, implying it may be part of a public consultation or survey campaign related to London's black cabs.

The image depicts a somber and symbolic representation of depression. A lone figure is seated on the floor of a dark, empty room. The figure's posture is slouched, conveying feelings of sadness, loneliness, and introspection. A small, cracked window in the upper right corner allows a narrow ray of light to enter the room, creating a stark contrast with the surrounding darkness. The light gently illuminates the figure and part of the floor, symbolizing a glimmer of hope or clarity amidst the gloom. The color palette is dominated by muted and cold tones like gray, blue, and black, enhancing the heavy, melancholic atmosphere. The walls of the room are textured, adding to the raw and emotional tone of the scene. The minimalistic setting, with little to no furniture, emphasizes emptiness and isolation.
