This is a print of a fox on a dotted surface with curving roots surrounding it. The fox is curled up with its head turned towards us, its fur depicted with fine white and black lines. Its fluffy tail lies on the ground, and its paws are tucked in towards its body. Curving, flowing lines around the fox depict leaves, tree roots, and branches. The print is surrounded by a border of off-white paper.
