A vertically oriented lithograph in teal and white depicts two figures. On our upper left, a fisherman with light skin tone leans toward the center. Below him on our right, a merman with light skin tone reclines with arms raised toward a large, diagonally extending patterned form. Muted teal ink creates a rectangular background with irregular edges, surrounding the central white shapes.
