About this work

This painting shows a large, dark building with a flat roof and a triangular overhang. The building has many windows and a few columns holding up the overhang. It's drawn with bold, black lines and simple shapes. The building is set against a gray sky that gets lighter towards the top of the painting. The artist used a mix of painting and cut-out paper to create the image. The result is a simple but striking picture of a modern building.
