It always fails, though often tried [...]

Ein Liebespaar küsst sich über eine Mauer hinweg. Sie hat die Unterarme auf der Mauer abgestützt und beugt sich ihm entgegen, während er die Hände abstützt und seinen Hut auf der Mauer abgelegt hat. Im unteren Bildrand wurde ein Ausschnitt des Gedichts "It always fails, though often tried" abgedruckt.
