You are looking at an abstract artwork that features stark black silhouettes against an off-white background. The image is composed of geometric and organic shapes that suggest two profiles facing each other—one on the left and one on the right of the image. There is a negative space between them that creates a vase or glass-like form due to the contours of their profiles. The silhouette on the left appears to have a straight and vertical shape, while the silhouette on the right looks like a profile with a pronounced nose and concave line where the mouth should be. Both forms have a circular notch near the seeming 'top' of their heads, adding to the symmetry but also breaking the strict outline of the profiles. The surface texture within the black shapes has some variations, suggesting either a printing method or textural technique was used. There is text written in script at the bottom left of the image reading "Das Mißverständnis (L. 20)" and at the bottom right, there's another inscription “G. André 1921”. This indicates the title of the artwork or series and the artist's signature with a date, respectively.

The image appears to be an abstract woodcut print. It consists of two large black shapes on a beige background, with a small silhouetted figure visible between them. The overall composition has a geometric, minimal aesthetic, with sharp contrasts between the dark and light areas. The title "Des Menschen (1-20)" suggests the work may be part of a series exploring the human figure in an abstract, stylized manner.
