The image consists of overlapping rectangles and smudged lines. In the top left corner, there is a rectangular shape resembling fabric with horizontal lines. In the center, there is a rectangle with a black-and-white image of a vintage building with pedestrians. Below it are amorphous brush-like strokes and gray shapes, with a silhouette resembling a dog. On the right side, there is a rectangle with layered portraits of a man and a woman in conversation. The piece has a textured, collage-like quality.
