This is an elaborate, realistic miniature style. A three-dimensional labyrinth city made of paper and wire unfolds on the pages of an open, worn encyclopedia. Towers, bridges, and spiral staircases thread their way between the words on the page, and small lamps light up on street corners. The composition is angled slightly upwards from directly in front, with the edges of the page naturally casting shadows that add depth to the city. The colors are the ivory of the paper and the dark brown of the ink, accented with a touch of gold leaf. The texture, contrasting with the roughness of the kraft paper and the sheen of the thin wire, makes it seem as if the story has melted into reality. Special effects include wisps of dust floating from the corners of the pages and slanting beams of light.
