Description
A single-story wooden building with a peaked roof stands off-center against a dense black background, rendered entirely in high-contrast black ink with the white paper left bare for highlights. Vertical gouge marks across the structure's walls suggest weathered plank siding, and two small window openings are visible, one with a faint window-pane grid. The print is pencil-numbered 900/1079 and signed by the artist in the lower margin; the overall effect is stark and shadowed, with the building's form emerging from heavy areas of black.
