A rare figurative work by Armin Landeck, known for his barren urban street scenes and rooftops. A man in a winter coat and cap walks through a quiet neighborhood, an ominous sky in the background. In the foreground, an ad for Lord Calvert whisky is plastered on the side of a brick building, and street signs bend askew, one directing passersby that there is only one way.
