A wide-eyed yellow mouse stands on its hind legs, clutching a wedge of holey red cheese. The flat shapes on a pale blue ground recall a mid-century picture book. The word ‘MOUSE’ runs beneath in a clean sans-serif.

Colour print, with the artist’s name printed in the lower margin. The label on the reverse reads ‘Title: Mouse / Artist: Lucy Begent’. In a white frame.
