A vertically oriented color lithograph depicts figures with light skin tones in dark blue water rendered in expressive strokes. In the foreground, a mermaid with a purple tail reclines, her arm arched above her head. Above her, a woman floats while a man dives from the upper right. A pale moon sits on the horizon, and a green fish swims along the bottom edge.
