A vertically oriented print in black ink depicts a man and a woman with light skin tones tied back-to-back at the ankles. They lean away from each other; the man on our left bends forward while the woman on our right arches back. Above them, a large owl with wide eyes and outstretched wings perches on the woman's head. Cursive text at the bottom reads, "No hay quien nos desate?"
