A quiet cityscape modeled after a Renaissance-era painting, once bustling with life now lays empty and deserted. It's a respectful and devotional interpretation of Christianity, painted with the skillful use of light and shadow reminiscent of the artistic style prevalent during the Renaissance period. The streets are lifeless and the buildings and structures echo the past prosperity. The mood is meditative and respectful. The only suggestion of life is around the city's ancient church, where a single figure kneels in prayer indicating a sense of devotion amidst the desolation.

Lamentations 1:1 How deserted lies the city, once so full of people!
