This print shows two lizard-like shapes inside a circular frame. The background is mostly black with sharp, jagged lines. Around the edge, there are wavy, leafy patterns that look like vines or water. The artist used only black ink on a grey-green paper, which makes the shapes pop. The lizards face each other, but their details are simple and stylized. Next, check out the technique: woodcut to see how this print was made.
