A vertical collage artwork combining various materials on a background painted with abstract strokes of teal and turquoise. The top section features a partially opened beige envelope with a purple heart drawn on it, a stamp, and postmarks. Centered on the envelope is a rectangular image of a classical bas-relief sculpture depicting two figures, one muscular and one draped. The bottom third of the collage is a painted scene of a dark green ship or boat on brown waves, set beneath a textured, light blue sky with abstract white and gray shapes. The top and bottom edges of the entire piece are bordered with a decorative olive-green and white patterned trim.
