Reverse description Light cream ground with a central figurative vignette in the Expressionist manner: a reclining nude female figure (Venus) lies in the foreground, while a standing lute-playing troubadour in period costume stands behind her, both set within a swirling cave-like recess. The border is formed by a continuous running text inscription in teal capital letters on all four sides, alluding to the Tannhäuser legend. A red serial number appears at lower right, and the artist's imprint 'W. KRÜGER-WUTHA.' is printed along the bottom margin.
