A vertically oriented lithograph in reddish-pink ink depicts Julnar and King Badr Basim in a central embrace. Julnar, a woman with light skin and long, wavy hair, stands on our right. Badr Basim, a man with light skin, faces her from our left. A large, circular red form sits in the upper left. Hazy, sketchy lines and washes surround the couple, creating a dreamlike scene defined by delicate, scribbled linework.
