A seated figure fills the centre in orange and yellow drapery, one hand raised to the cheek, beneath a long white wig falling past the shoulders. Thin white lines draw an open box around it, its flat grey ceiling spanning the top of the canvas and its uprights running down to the lower edge. Behind, the ground is black and deep red, with a pink rectangular panel at upper left holding a pale outlined chair. The lower two thirds are a dense bed of coral, pink and red strokes. At left a small pale figure with curly hair sits in lavender and cream; at right a larger blonde figure in a pink and grey robe turns inward, a wide pink wing behind its shoulder. Below the centre a smaller figure with grey hair lies back with its legs raised. A dark signature mark sits in the lower right corner.
