Verfluchung der Städte V (Curse Against the Cities V) (in-text plate) from mock-up of Georg Heym: Umbra Vitae (Georg Heym: Shadow of Life)
The artwork depicts sharp, angular shapes and lines interlocking within a compact space, creating an abstract representation. The arrangement resembles a cityscape with various towers, arches, and spires. The structures suggest rooftops and buildings but remain stylized and abstract.
