A vertically oriented black ink print depicts three figures with expressive features in a massive, dark tree rendered with dense cross-hatching. At the top right, a figure sits reaching outward. To our left, another climbs toward a branch. Below, a third figure sits on a lower branch at our right, reaching for the trunk. Several wooden boards are nailed to the trunk, and a rope hangs on the left. Below, "Playmates" is pencil-written.
