"The Two Towers" is a 20th-century etching by Gustav Goetsch (1877-1934), currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. The print depicts a city street scene with two prominent towers dominating the skyline. The artist's use of dark, detailed lines creates a sense of depth and perspective, capturing the urban landscape in a visually striking manner. Goetsch’s urban views are noted for their realistic detail and strong sense of atmosphere. This etching exemplifies his mastery of the medium and his keen observation of the city.
