This drawing shows a city packed with tall, blocky buildings. The shapes are sharp and flat, like puzzle pieces stacked unevenly. Some buildings lean or overlap, and a few have staircases or rooftop details. The whole scene is in black, white, and gray, with no color. The artist used a technique where ink is pressed onto a smooth stone to make prints. This lets them play with bold lines and shadows. Look up lithography to see how it works.
