This print shows a tangle of dark lines and shapes on a light background. Branches twist upward, ending in small circles or faces. Some areas are filled with swirling patterns, while others stay loose and sketchy. The edges are uneven, like the paper was cut by hand. The title is scrawled in the corner—*"Moonlight, proof"*—but the rest is open to guessing. The mix of sharp lines and blurred spots makes it feel like a dream half-remembered.
