This print shows a tall, detailed church. You can see pointed arches, tall windows, and lots of small carvings on the walls. The building looks old and fancy, with lots of lines and shadows. Notice how the artist used fine lines to show every brick and curve. This was done with a needle on metal plates. Next, look up etching to see how artists make prints like this.
