Summary

An almost totally blacked-out view of St. John's Church, Manchester, seen from the end of the road looking down towards the church, silhouetted against the pale, heavy impasto sky. Rows of terraced housing line either side of the church, seen as solid dark blocks, indistinguishable from each other.
