I've adjusted the image a little bit to try to make it clearer. Not sure if it helps, but here it is. Anyway, the top word seems to be something like "W...N" and the second word may be "Live" I kind of see a tall woman with dark hair on the left looking right and a man on the right looking left with two smaller figures between the two people in the foreground. Or am I just seeing an ink blot?
