A vertical woodblock, stained black with ink, features deep, geometric carvings that reveal light brown grain. In the center, a tapering church spire rises from a cluster of small, gabled houses. Jagged, diagonal lines radiate from the top edges across the surface. The entire composition exhibits a rough, chiseled texture, with deep recesses and protruding angular planes forming a fragmented, energetic scene.
