content: Vertical sheet depicting conical masonry tower pierced at intervals by small rectangular window openings, surmounted by a four-armed wood structure meant to catch the wind. This structure moves on a central pivot that seems to anchor to the back of the structure. Below the arms is a walkway that encircles the tower and is visibly supported by timber buttresses from underneath.
