About this work

This print shows a strange, dreamlike city at night. A tall, spiraling tower dominates the left side, with a lone figure standing on top. To the right, a pyramid-like shape and dark trees loom over a winding road. The sky is heavy with clouds, and the whole scene feels eerie and quiet. The artist used ink and paper to create this mood—no colors, just black and white. The lines are loose and uneven, like something sketched in haste or memory. Want to see more work like this?
