About this work

This drawing shows a building split into sharp, slanted shapes. The lines overlap in a way that makes the structure look twisted, almost like a puzzle. There’s no color—just pencil strokes on paper, with some areas darker where the lines crowd together. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1917. That date hints at a time when artists were playing with new ways to show space and movement. If you like how this drawing bends perspective, look up cross-hatching.
