charcoal drawing of a mosque, the dome in the back, clearly in the sunlight. In front of it there is an empty archway, with some smaller built structures - not done in detail, only silhouettes - in front of them. There is no background. The style is detailed, slightly realistic, and the shading is done by crosshatching.
