A vertically oriented lithograph with heavy, textured shading depicts a muscular woman perched on horizontal bars. Looking away, she turns her head left as her right leg extends downward. A landscape featuring rolling hills and two small buildings is seen below. Strong contrast defines the scene, with highlights on her right and dark, blocky shadows on the left, emphasizing her athletic frame against a grainy, expansive sky.
