A color linocut print in green, red, yellow, and black depicting multiple seated figures amid an abstract streetscape. The top half of the print features a large design of green and black concentric circles appearing over a yellow brick or stone roof or pathway. On the left and right edges of the top half there are multiple columns of green, red, and yellow ovals.
