 A detailed black and white woodcut print depicts a bustling urban scene. In the foreground, a sign reads "Haircuts 4 Homeless"; next to it a standing figure is giving a haircut to a seated one. A passing bus has a large foreboding skeletal image on its facade, and additional skeletal figures are seen on the balconies of the homes in the background.
