A horizontally oriented etching in brown ink on cream paper depicts a town square in Metz. On the right, tall buildings with arched ground floors recede, their facades braced by leaning wooden beams rendered in fine, straight strokes. To the left, a multi-story building overlooks market stalls and figures suggested by light, minimalist lines. A vast, empty plaza fills the center, leading to handwritten inscriptions in the bottom margin.
