A vertically oriented color lithograph depicts two figures with pale skin tones against a brushy, muted yellow and light blue background. One stands with long hair, tilting their head toward our right while a horizontal figure below reaches an arm toward the standing figure's hip. In the upper left, a bird flies above a rooster with a human head. These soft-edged forms dissolve into the pale, textured wash of the surrounding landscape.
