Description: Several tall skyscrapers are clustered together in a row. Each building is bent in a sinuous curve. On every building, each floor is a different color-a shade of purple, green, blue, or red-with white stripes separating them. Each floor also has several small black windows. The buildings are all textured with vertical stripes. Below the building, stripes in brightly colored segments fan out toward the bottom of the painting. This section is dotted with small, red, white-bordered squares. Above the buildings, segmented stripes starting on the left curve downward, then back up toward the right. These are dotted with filmy white clouds.
