A horizontally oriented wood engraving in black ink on off-white paper depicts a dense industrial landscape. In the left foreground, a steam locomotive moves forward, a man standing on its front holding a flag. Behind it, factory buildings and rounded kilns rise toward the center. In the background, numerous chimneys emit thick smoke into a sky of patterned clouds. A metal girder spans the upper middle, detailed with sharp, intricate lines.
