Die Höfe Luden Uns Ein... (The Yards Invited Us...) (headpiece, page 42) from Georg Heym: Umbra Vitae (Georg Heym: The Shadow of Life)
This is a drawing of a stylized urban scene. The monochromatic drawing depicts tall buildings with several silhouetted figures in the foreground. The central figure appears more detailed, with facial features and a patterned garment. Below the drawing, there is a block of text, which seems to be a poem in German.
