A woman covered in blankets lies in bed with one eye open.

Soft olive colored lines printed on cream colored paper show a woman in bed. At right, the woman’s head emerge from under heavy light colored blankets. Lying on her stomach with her face partially buried in a pillow, she regards the viewer from the corner of one eye as dark hair falls around her face. From behind her head her hand, emerging from the frilly cuff of her gown, rests languidly on a pillow. At top right, the far post of her bed is visible.
