Artist, Hungarian, born 1937

The image shows a view through a window with an iron railing visible in the foreground. A blurred hand in the lower part of the image points towards a cityscape. The horizon is filled with closely packed buildings of various architectural styles, ranging from older stone structures to more modern buildings. The skyline is uniformly flat with no significant elevation changes, indicating a densely populated urban area. The black and white rendering accentuates the contrast between the different buildings while giving the image a timeless quality. The clarity decreases in the distance, possibly due to atmospheric effects or limitations of the camera's focus.
