Octagonal Metal Cupola and Spire

The octagonal metal cupola sits atop a narrow building and projects above an alley between older masonry façades. The photograph is rendered in black-and-white with a bright sky behind the cupola and darker, mid-tone stone and plaster on the surrounding buildings; the frame is tight and vertical. A thin metal rod rises from the apex and the cupola's glazed panels show a visible wire-mesh pattern.
