Original artwork description:

It is not a photo! It's a drawing !!

Title: Santa Maria a Monte / Museo del Cai Torino
done on 20: 12: 2017
drawing No. 106

Pencil drawing of my photo at 400 degrees
Turin Panoramic Piazzale Monte Dei Cappuccini
You can clearly see the Mole Antonelliana e
next to the Cai museum, a mountain I climbed could not be missing: the Monviso.
I love city landscapes with beautiful historical monuments, squares, skyscrapers.
Black and white give a touch of ancient and magic to the design.
The technique is simple: pencil
I use micro mines, otherwise, I would spend time tempering.
The hardness 2b, hb, 2h; I finish the drawing with wooden pencils 4h, 8h to leave very little white and 8b to reinforce the blacks and give the drawing three-dimensionality
I practically do a "very analog" white balance

Materials used:
