A vertically oriented black-and-white lithograph depicts a massive dark figure with white outlines looming over a silhouetted cityscape. The figure has an open mouth and wiry hair, with one arm raised and the other bent across the chest. A bright starburst glows behind the head amidst swirling gray textures. Below, skeletal structures and tall skyscrapers rise from the base, their sharp forms set against the figure's dark torso.
