The woman holds a lighted match, but, in a Magritte-like paradox, her body is in darkness. This darkness hides her body and it is unclear if she is clothed or naked like the man behind her. The couple have just had sex and the man on the bed drifts off to sleep, while the blue-tinged woman attempts to add light to her situation. For now, both figures are unidentified, as if they hardly know each other.
