Stockholm Solarization
c. 1934

A high-contrast, sketch-like rendering of a cityscape with prominent buildings, including a church with a spire, and waterfront with boats. The image has an inverted color effect, giving it the appearance of a negative film or a drawing with white lines on a dark background.
