Lyonel Feininger

Artist, American, 1871 - 1956

This image shows a cityscape with angular, abstract buildings reaching toward the sun in a monochromatic color palette with stark contrasts. The bold, graphic lines and blocky shapes create a sense of verticality and drama. The composition features tall, geometrically complex architecture in the middle, with the sun shining brightly in the upper right corner.
