A color linocut depicting a living room couch in front of windows. The couch has floral print seat and back cushions, with striped arm rests. A small, round table sits in front of it on a dark floral rug. A large plant sits to the right, with several smaller plants on a table behind the sofa. The couch sits in front of two large windows that flank narrow brick wall. Across the top are three half-circle transoms with intricate scroll designs. The transoms are an amber yellow, the only color in the otherwise black and white print. The title of the print [Living Room] is written in pencil on the bottom left corner underneath the image with [1/35] written on the bottom center. It is unsigned.
