Vertically oriented print in black ink with two people seated within an interior, one with light skin tone in a chair on the left facing our right, another with medium-dark skin tone on the floor, leaning in towards the first person, but eyes looking to our right. They wear dresses and head-coverings, the one on the left a hat sloping up like a fin and on the right fabric draped over hair.
