Description
A high-contrast black and white ink illustration depicts the western facade of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris during its reconstruction. In the foreground, two silhouetted French police officers in patrol caps stand behind a metal crowd barrier facing Parisian street traffic and pedestrians. A prominent construction crane rises adjacent to the cathedral's right tower, emphasizing ongoing restoration work. The composition balances intricate gothic architectural line work across the rose window and portals with bold, graphic black silhouettes in the lower street level.
