A vertically oriented print on white paper depicts multiple human figures in a dark, grainy space. Centered, a blindfolded person runs toward the lower left. To the right, another blindfolded figure falls backward. Above them, a bearded figure drawn in white outlines holds a long staff. Smaller figures tumble through the background. Near the bottom edge, silhouetted arms reach upward. Diagonal beams of light highlight the figures against high-contrast gray and black hatching.
