A vertically oriented etching in black ink depicts multi-story buildings with dark windows and wooden beams perched atop a jagged cliff. These structures occupy the upper third, shaded with fine vertical strokes. The lower two-thirds shows a pale, minimalist cliff face defined by thin, sparse lines. To the right, three small birds fly in a light sky. A signature appears in the bottom right margin.
