What is the meaning of "sharp" here?
The building stood sharp against the sky.
Is this an adjective that means "clear and definite"?
Thank you in advance!
Yes, that's just what it means. We often talk about 'sharp contrasts' in the sense of clear and definite. The building really stands out clearly against the background of the sky.
