A horizontally oriented oil painting depicts seven stylized figures in a row against a dark background. Their elongated faces are rendered in overlapping shades of light blue, teal, and purple. Each figure has narrowed eyes and a small, dark circle for an open mouth. Sharp vertical lines define their noses, while visible brushwork adds texture. Dark brown shapes suggest shoulders along the bottom. A small circular monogram is in the lower right.
