Descrierea imaginii
This is a drawing of three human-like figures. The central figure is nude with flowing hair and is posed with one arm reaching upwards. On either side of the central figure are two other humanoid forms depicted in a semi-transparent manner. Radiating lines extend from the side figures. The composition features soft, curving lines and blends gently into the background.
