A vertically oriented lithograph depicts two ethereal blue figures and three birds. Near the top, a figure with long, cascading brown hair curves gracefully. Below, a horizontal figure with rounded limbs looks upward, reaching toward the first. On the left, green, blue, and pink birds float among hazy, textured strokes of teal, indigo, and yellow. This dreamlike scene is framed by a wide white margin, highlighting the gentle, layered application of color.
