A vertically oriented black-and-white lithograph depicts a tall, fractured tower centered between two dark buildings that tilt inward. The tower is constructed from geometric shards and latticed patterns. In the lower center, an archway reveals a dense cluster of small houses. Billowing, rounded forms fill the upper half of the composition. High contrast shading and sharp angles define the scene, with much of the composition cast in deep shadow.
