A vertically oriented lithograph in monochromatic pink ink depicts Julnar, a woman with a light skin tone, standing angled to our right with her head tilted down. Shaded with sketchy hatched lines, she leans over King Badr Basim, whose wide-eyed head looks up from below. A circular form floats in the upper left corner. The pink ink bleeds across the off-white paper, merging the figures with a hazy, sparsely detailed background.
