This lithograph in black on heavy japan paper shows a woman sitting on a man's back. She is clothed, and he is nude. The man is sitting on the ground, with his head down and his arms around his knees. The woman's right arm is bent, and her left arm is straight. Her head is tilted back, and her eyes are closed. The woman's face is serene, and her body is relaxed. The man's body is tense, and his face is not visible. The background of the lithograph is dark and indistinct. If you're interested in learning more about this style of art, you might want to look into Impressionism.
