A vertically oriented woodblock carving depicts several stylized, geometric figures. To our left, a tall figure has a grid-patterned body. Center, another figure consists of stacked rectangular blocks. To our right, a shorter figure features a triangular head and large eyes. Below, a small four-legged animal stands centered. Deep horizontal and vertical lines are gouged into the dark-stained surface, revealing light wood grain and giving the composition a rough, textured appearance.
