Story

Jagged, geometric buildings rise together in this composition, their fractured planes converging toward a tall central spire, all rendered in stark black ink against the pale cream of the paper. The piece is a woodcut, created in 1920 by Lyonel Feininger (1871–1956), an American-German artist associated with Expressionism. It entered the Terra Foundation for American Art through the Daniel J. Terra Collection, joining a group of works reflecting American artistic achievement.
