A vertically oriented color lithograph in vibrant reds and pinks depicts a dense, expressive scene. In the upper center, a large woman with medium-light skin tone and long dark hair stands bare-chested above a crowd of nude figures. On our right, a man in a patterned tunic brandishes a sword and severed head. A violin and cannon rest nearby amidst a swirling, atmospheric background.
