A vertically oriented black-and-white etching depicts a stone building undergoing construction. On the left, a horse-drawn cart sits in the foreground. To the right, laborers work amidst heavy wooden scaffolding. The central structure rises with an ornate oval window and a dome. Densely packed rooftops and chimneys fill the background. Fine line work creates deep shadows cast from light on the left. The scene is centered on vertically oriented beige paper.
