Artist, American, born 1951

The image shows a large brick industrial building with tall, rectangular glass block windows and distinctive towers with steep, sloped roofs. Snow is present on the ground and on the roofs of the building. The sky occupies the upper portion of the image, and no horizon is visible. The building stretches into the distance with a repeating pattern of windows. The black-and-white color palette emphasizes the texture and form of the architecture, casting sharp shadows. There are a few vehicles and a small outbuilding to the left.
