A vertically oriented lithograph in muted blue ink on white paper depicts a central, nude female figure standing upright. Her body curves toward our right as she tilts her head down. Below her, a horizontal male figure gazes upward. Center left, a small birdlike creature with a human head stands amidst rough, sketchy blue textures. These strokes form a hazy, ethereal background that encircles the figures in a dreamlike, textured scene.
