Description for blind and low-vision visitors
A horizontal painting of two large elongated fish-serpent creatures whose bodies coil and intertwine across the entire surface. The upper creature stretches from the left with a finely combed feathery tail and curves to a toothed open mouth at the upper right. The lower creature fills the center with a densely patterned body of teal, red and purple eye-spots and scale lines, its fanned fins flaring in red and orange. A small bird with a long beak hovers at the upper right facing the mouth, and a smaller striped fish appears at the lower left. The background is a soft wash of yellow and green with feathery green strokes along the lower edges. A small signature sits at the lower right.
