A horizontally oriented, black-and-white photograph captures a woman walking toward us on a sidewalk. To our left, a towering concrete wall with a rounded top recedes deep into the frame, its surface scrawled with the words "Ausländer rauss!". Multistory buildings with rows of windows and parked cars fill the background under a pale, flat sky. The composition emphasizes the wall's immense scale as it cuts diagonally through the street.
