A vertically oriented black-and-white lithograph depicts a man with light skin standing atop a pile of tangled debris. He wears a dark suit and brimmed hat, hunched forward with hands in his pockets as he looks down. His thin limbs contrast with the wreckage of wheels and metal fragments below. Dense hatching and hash marks shade the scene, which features a dark gradient background and a shadow cast behind him.
