Interior of a dark café, single lamp, figures as angular fragments in shadow
Close-up portrait face with deep carved diagonal shadow marks across features
City street in heavy rain, figures as slashed angular shadows under a dark sky
Mountain pass in fog, pine trees as angular spear-like forms
Dense forest interior, twisted branches crossing in violent black contrast
Worker hunched over a table, hands large and angular, face in harsh shadow
Factory district at night, chimneys as jagged black verticals, sky slashed white
Mother and child huddled together under an angular shadow
Bridge over a river in a storm, planks and girders as harsh diagonal gouges
Crowded tram interior, faces compressed into sharp angular wedges
Market stalls in the rain, awnings as slashing lines, figures hunched
Harbour at night, mast lines as harsh scratched diagonals, water black
Kneeling figure in anguish, body distorted by sharp diagonal gouges
Church facade looming above, distorted perspective, doorway a dark void
Bare winter tree against white sky, branches as angular torn marks
Prison gate as harsh vertical bars, figure standing behind
Train crossing a viaduct, locomotive as angular black mass, smoke slashed
Two figures arguing on a street corner, angular distorted gestures
Dog alone on an empty street, angular shadow stretching across cobblestones
Cliff face with crashing waves below, vertical gouge marks suggest danger
