This is a drawing of a large, empty billboard structure. The drawing depicts a billboard mounted on a complex lattice of support beams. The billboard itself is a blank rectangular shape, occupying the upper portion of the image, while the beams create a pattern of lines and angles beneath it. The details of the beams suggest a precise and technical approach in the drawing. The background is light and unobtrusive.
