This black-and-white image shows a crumbling stone pyramid covered in vines and small plants. The steps are uneven, and some blocks have carvings or faded symbols. Branches grow from the top, reaching into the sky. The pyramid looks old and weathered, with nature slowly taking over the man-made structure. The title mentions tigers, but they’re not visible here. Next, look up The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
