A vertically oriented lithograph in reddish-pink ink on off-white paper depicts the outlines of floating figures. In the center, a nude woman with long hair reclines. Furthest left, a sketchy bird stands, while a darker red bird in the bottom left corner flies upward. To the lower right, the head and shoulders of another figure look toward us. Thin, loose lines and soft shading create a light, airy composition.
