This print shows two blocky faces stacked like a sandwich. The top face is pink with a black triangle nose, two white oval eyes, and a thin black line for a mouth. The bottom face is blue with the same simple features. Both have two small white lines on top like horns or antennae. The print looks like it was carved into wood—you can almost see the grainy texture. The colors are flat and bright, with no shading.
