A vertically oriented pen drawing on tan paper features two stacked sketches within thin rectangular frames. The top sketch shows a dense architectural scene of timbered buildings with overhanging structures and a central downward-pointing spire. Below, a profile sketch depicts a craggy, grotesque head with a furrowed brow and open mouth. In the bottom-left corner, a smaller creature with wide eyes and a jagged mouth peers upward.
