This is a very accurate city map of Rotterdam with a modern black and white background painted with black watercolor. Because the watercolor is applied in a rather abstract way you can see both dark and light parts in this work. The lighter areas are reminiscent of light clouds so it seems like you are looking at Rotterdam from an airplane.
The football stadiums De Kuip from Feijenoord, Het Kasteel from Sparta and the stadium from SBV Excelsior are also realistically depicted in this mixed-media artwork.
