Description

The artwork showcases a large hare carrying a monkey on its back, rendered in a collage style. The hare is the dominant figure, its fur a mix of browns and tans with long ears and a focused gaze. Atop the hare sits a small monkey with light fur and a long tail, its hand extended forward. Floral elements surround the animals, including irises, lilies, and roses in shades of blue, pink, and yellow. The background is a blend of painted elements, featuring mountains, a body of water, and a sky filled with light and clouds. Radiating lines of gold appear around the animals' heads. The overall composition gives the impression of a fantastical scene.
