I : 22
A clear demonstration of “top-heaviness.” Starting in the lower left corner with a tiny dark red square and continuing along the bottom edge with one light red line, we then follow a few small steps of the same light red as it leads up to a colossal building of many stories which ends broader than high at the top. All this against an almost equally heavy background — in other words, the “top-heaviness” is achieved with a broad top in the lightest color.
