A vertically oriented etching and drypoint on off-white paper depicts a stylized figure standing centrally with one arm extended and the other on its hip. Perched directly atop the figure's head is a small car carrying two passengers. Sketchy lines and cross-hatching define the figure's form, which is framed by a stippled arch of small dots. A signature and edition number appear in the lower margin.
