This print shows a line drawing of a reclining woman lying next to a creature resembling a minotaur. Their heads are towards the top left corner, and their feet stretch towards the bottom right. The woman is nude, lying on her back with one arm tucked by her head and her other arm extended to the right. Her facial features are drawn with minimal lines, including large eyes, thin lips, and a small, straight nose. Her short hair curls around her head. She lays on the chest of the minotaur, and one of its human hands is curled onto her chest, while the other hand is holding a beaded necklace around its neck. It has a large bull's head with short, curly hair and two small, curved horns. A cloth patterned with small flowers appears to be wrapped around its waist, and its knees are bent in front of the woman, its bare feet visible. Small vertical lines on the left and right indicate curtains hanging over them, and in the top right is the bottom edge of a window or painting which shows a minimal hilly landscape. In the center of the print there is a large black mark, like a dark scribble, that looks out of place with the thin lines in the rest of the print.
