Città Imperiale

Invented cityscape. For those familiar with architectural styles: it's like Piranesi meets Sant'Elia. Not that I chose those two styles on purpose. I just had an idea and started drawing, and it evolved into this.
I had read a book on the italian interbellum architects Terragni and Libera recently, so apparently that futurist/rationalist/Mussolini building style stuck in my mind. Just drawing for fun.

I like it! Reminds me of a dream.

More like a nightmare. Whenever I look at the drawing I see the dark clouds of a looming second world war. Funny, because that was not my intention at all when I started drawing.
