A steel bridge spans a dark river in the foreground, framing a dramatic vertical composition of Chicago's towering skyscrapers rendered in crisp black and white. The monochromatic palette emphasizes the geometric precision of the urban landscape, with strong contrast between the skeletal bridge structure and the soaring rectangular forms of the buildings beyond. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
