The image shows a cityscape depicted in a sketchy style. The horizon line divides the earth and sky. Various architectural elements are visible, suggesting buildings and monuments. The brushstrokes are loose and broad, using shades of grey and black. A structure with a roof and colonnaded side is in the foreground. Details become more abstract in the distance. The color palette is minimal, emphasizing light and shadow.
