The Brandenburg Gate in Berlin rises over a cobblestone square, with two small figures walking toward its columns and the quadriga on top. Dark blue blotches across the pillars, the entablature and the arches act as the dense modules, and the heavy column and gate structures hide the finder squares. Cream and ochre sunlit surfaces sit against deep blue washes, which keeps the light and dark pattern clear. Soft bleeding edges and long shadows across the pavement give the scene a dreamy, painterly feel.
