Illustration in black and white depicting a stylized scene with a large hot air balloon-like object tethered by a cord to a futuristic building. A profile of a woman's face appears in the upper left, gazing at the balloon, while a child reaches out towards the building from the lower right. The background features diagonal lines suggesting rain or motion, with a dark cloud near the top.
