This black-and-white print shows a city skyline made of sharp, geometric shapes. Buildings lean at odd angles, with some looking like they’re stacked or cut into triangles. The lines are bold and clean, with no soft edges—just flat blocks of white against a dark background. A few shapes look like cranes or construction equipment mixed in with the buildings. The artist used only two colors: black and white. This makes the shapes stand out even more, like a puzzle where every piece fits together in a strange, modern way. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how prints like this are made.
