A vertically oriented woodblock in dark ink depicts a dense composition of abstracted, angular buildings. Several tiered structures with gabled roofs and small window cutouts fill the lower half. A tall tower with a pointed roof rises on the right, while a roof to the left is topped by a cross. Chiseled vertical and horizontal textures define recessed areas, while ink-coated surfaces create sharp, fragmented outlines that suggest architectural form throughout.
