A striking large-format work in coloured pencil, this piece presents an intricate architectural fantasy rendered in a Cubist-inspired multi-perspective style. The composition fills the entire picture plane with overlapping domes, minarets, arched doorways, spiral staircases, pointed spires, and ornamental towers, evoking an imagined Eastern or Islamic-influenced cityscape viewed simultaneously from multiple angles. The technique is meticulous. Layers of coloured pencil in dark blues, navies, and charcoals are punctuated by rose, teal, ochre, and gold, creating a richly atmospheric, labyrinthine visual world.<br>
<br>
The work is signed "ISHISHI " in the lower margin. The artist appears to have a distinctive and accomplished style with evident technical skill in the coloured pencil medium. Works of this character and scale by emerging or unknown artists typically achieve $100 to $500 at auction, depending on presentation and buyer interest on the day. The subject matter and quality of execution would appeal to collectors of fantastical or architectural art.<br>
