A composition set in an oval shows a scene from O'Keeffe's Agreeable surprise in which Cowslip (Mrs. Wells) stands in profile on the left holding out a bowl of milk. Lingo (Mr. Edwin) faces the viewer as his eyes turn toward Cowslip; he gestures with his right hand chest-high. Both are three-quarter views of the performers
