The image shows an elevated view of a street corner with a curved stone railing. In the center, a man in a hat and coat is interacting with a large structure. Cobbled paving leads to the distance, and the horizon is shown just above the middle with a curved boundary dividing the street and the river. Moored boats are visible along the water's edge. The street has ornate lamp posts, a few pedestrians, and leafless tree branches on the left. The image is in black and white, highlighting light and shadow contrasts, with the wet ground suggesting recent rain.
