This black and white studio photograph presents a rectangular slab of Plattenkalk, a type of fine-grained limestone, positioned upright. The stone's surface is intricately adorned with a multitude of spiral patterns, ranging in size, which appear as lighter tones against the darker matrix of the rock. The image highlights the texture of the Plattenkalk, including its somewhat uneven edges and top, as it stands on a light-colored surface against a dark, featureless background.
