The image depicts a street view looking towards a row of urban buildings extending into the distance. The horizon is low, indicated by the line of buildings. A church steeple rises above the rooflines. The brushstrokes are fluid and loose, suggesting an impressionistic style. The color palette includes warm and muted tones - beiges, browns, and greys for the structures with a light blue sky above. In the foreground, there are individuals and an early automobile.
