A vertically oriented black ink print depicts five stylized figures in grainy newsprint, blending into the dark background. In the foreground, two figures rest their arms on a block of fragmented words. Behind them stand three men in hats; the figure on our left looks right, while the others face each other. Dark architectural forms with small windows occupy the top right, unified by coarse textures and overlapping columns of dense classified text.
