Finished editorial illustration, 3:2 landscape. View an old covered market arcade obliquely from its empty courtyard. Three comically broad, flattened stone arches rest on improbably tall, slightly uneven columns; a shallow tiled roof ties them into one continuous building. The nearest column is cropped at the left edge, with the arcade receding toward the upper right and open cream paving below. Berry-red masonry, deep violet recesses, warm ivory highlights. One broad, soft-edged violet cloud shadow cuts diagonally across the paving and lower columns. Expressive hand-drawn marker fills combined with a simplified wood-engraving look: heavy irregular contours, a few wide white carved strokes, no intricate hatching. Suggest age with rounded stone edges and two or three chips, not dense detail. Bold legible silhouette, playful architectural proportions, spacious composition. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
