Artist, Scottish, 1876 - 1953

The image shows a row of tall, narrow buildings dominating the scene. The horizon line is low, nearly at the base of the image where the buildings meet the ground. A spire rises above the row of buildings. The artwork features soft, smudged lines and shading, with a monochrome color palette dominated by sepia tones. There are indistinct lines close to us that imply rough terrain leading up to the buildings in the distance. The sky occupies much of the artwork, emphasizing the skyline of the urban architecture.
