The image depicts a view from beneath a large bridge or archway structure with prominent diagonal support beams. The structure dominates the left side of the image, while the right side shows a low horizon with a cityscape of angular skyscrapers. The horizon is filled with smokestacks and industrial elements. The artwork features bold brushstrokes, a monochromatic palette of black, grey, and white, and emphasizes movement and the imposing nature of the structures. The angular forms and flow of lines convey a mechanical and industrial environment.
