The image features curving and jagged lines forming distinct shapes such as a person wrapped in cloth, a bull, and a bird. To the left, the text "Les Souitine" is intertwined with swirls, while on the right, faces with mask-like features are visible. The design shows bold contrast between light and shadow, resembling a carved or scratched appearance of woodcut prints.
