City Roofs 1956

"City Roofs" is a 1956 drawing by Hungarian artist Peter Takal (1905-1995). This minimalist work features a complex array of lines and angles that evoke the urban landscape. The drawing uses delicate lines to create a sense of depth and perspective, suggesting a bird's-eye view of a city skyline. The absence of detail focuses on the abstract forms of architecture, creating a fascinating interplay of lines and shapes that captivate the viewer's imagination. This piece demonstrates Takal's fascination with the abstract forms found in the built environment.
