A vertically oriented lithograph in black ink depicts a tall figure in a dark gown and delicate veil on the left, holding a bouquet. To the right, five stylized figures are stacked vertically with exaggerated, grainy features. They perform expressive gestures, such as covering eyes or mouths, while the figure second from the bottom displays a wide, toothy grin. High-contrast shading and speckled textures define the various forms throughout the composition.
