Surrealist Portrait with Figures

This item is a framed, rectangular artwork, likely a painting or a print, featuring a surrealist composition. The central subject is a woman's head and shoulders with flowing, wavy brown hair, seemingly emerging from or engulfed by a light-colored, possibly off-white or cream background that exhibits a web-like or shattered glass pattern radiating outwards from her head. Her expression appears somber or contemplative, with downcast eyes. Scattered around her, and integrated into the swirling lines of her hair and the background, are several small, darkly-clad male figures, one of which is clearly visible in the upper right, appearing to float or fall. Another tiny, indistinct pink or red detail is visible near her chest area, possibly a small embellishment or object. The artwork is housed in a simple, dark-colored, likely wooden frame that appears to be black or dark brown. The frame has a flat profile and shows minimal, if any, ornate detailing, suggesting a modern or minimalist aesthetic. The overall color palette is subdued, with warm browns for the hair, flesh tones for the face, and dark accents for the figures against a lighter background. The visible condition suggests some possible wear to the frame corners. Given the surreal elements and stylized figures, it likely dates from the 20th or 21st century. The craftsmanship appears to be of decent quality, with clear delineation of forms, though the resolution of the image makes it difficult to assess fine texture or brushwork.
