The light falls from the left upon the ruins of the lofty concert hall, drawn during its destruction in 1905. A massive column stands on the left ; a slack rope and a long and a short ladder interrupt the prevailing perpendicular lines. Workmen are busy in various parts of the building and two horses are seen towards the back.
