Graphite on vertically oriented paper outlines the intricate architectural shapes of a Gothic facade. Centered at the base, a rectangular door sits beneath a large, patterned archway. Above, curved stone supports with circular cutouts connect a tall stone wall to slender, lacy towers. Fine, dense lines create a complex texture across the cream paper. A faint red mark appears on the left, punctuating the vertical composition of the ornate stonework.
