This is a drawing of three figures in an abstract landscape around a tall structure. The figures are intertwined in dynamic poses, with one reaching out. The background shows abstract shapes, including waves, cloaked figures, a tower, and a cityscape. In the foreground, there are columns, flags, and what looks like the top of a helmeted head. The drawing is stark black and white with intricate line work.
