Description for blind and low-vision visitors
A horizontal composition dominated by a large fantastic dragon- or lizard-like creature whose long neck loops back over its hunched body, jaws open to show teeth at the right. Its dark form is densely speckled with blue, green, and ochre dots and dotted with small leaf-like, flame-like, and cross-shaped motifs, and it stands on clawed feet. The background is a bright yellow field framed by brown and blue-grey borders. Smaller related creatures and shapes appear at the lower left and right corners. The artist's signature and year are painted near the lower center. The style is naïve, dense, and highly decorative.
