The image shows an abstract line drawing enclosed within a square, bordered by double lines. Inside the square, a circle contains a series of curved and angular lines that form the outlines of two figures: one resembling a human with a sweeping posture, and the other resembling a goat with curved horns. The human-like shape seems to lean towards the goat. The lines used in the drawing offer a combination of geometry and fluidity.
