The Ethel Morrison Van Derlip Fundexpand_more 2014.65.3.11
The positioning of this passionate couple is so entwined it does bring to mind the grabbling of wrestling. He is entering her from behind but she manages to twist her upper body around and grasp at him in what appears to be nearly a headlock. Her expression and gestures are of intense involvement and pleasure.
