A cityscape of Gothic spires, church facades and slate rooftops sinks into drifting clouds under a dusk sky of amber, lavender and navy. The tall spires and the dark towers rising through the cloud bank hide the finder squares, while rooftops, masonry and puffs of cloud carry the dark and light modules. Warm sandstone streets sit against cool blue shadows, and that contrast keeps the pattern legible across the scene. Fine stippled texture runs through the whole painting and gives the city a shimmering, dreamlike surface.
