An almost monochrome composition spread over a carmine-pink field crossed by thin construction lines drawn like a technical diagram. At the upper right a hatched square holds a spoked wheel; at the lower left a kneeling figure sits on a hatched half-wheel, while on the right a standing figure is split vertically — one half light, the other densely hatched. The single chromatic accent is a raw green crescent at the upper left, laid over the barely visible outline of a large circle. The paint is dry, almost fresco-like, applied in thin layers that let the support show; the signature "Șinca I. 77" appears at lower right.
