This is a black and white woodcut print depicting a surreal landscape with several figures and animals. The style is expressive and somewhat primitive, with strong lines and dramatic contrasts. The composition is dominated by a large, stylized head in the upper right corner, which appears to be a human face with exaggerated features. This head seems to be part of a larger, undulating form that resembles hills or waves. Below the head, there are several small figures engaged in various activities. One figure is standing and appears to be playing a musical instrument, while another is seated and holding an object. There are also some animal figures, including what appears to be a horse or other quadruped. The background is filled with stylized trees and hills, and there is a body of water in the lower part of the composition. The sky is filled with swirling clouds and other atmospheric effects. The overall impression is one of dreamlike fantasy and emotional intensity. The print is signed and dated in the lower right corner, and there is some text in the lower left corner. The print is titled 'Maruru' and dated '90'.
