A vertically oriented graphite drawing depicts a tall, cylindrical bell tower in the left half and a church facade on the right. The tower rises in tiered sections with arched openings, culminating in a pointed spire with radiating lines. Adjacent, the church displays a triangular roof, a circular window, and an arched entryway. Faint pencil lines form a rectangular border around the sketchy architectural composition, which shows visible signs of weathering and cracks.
