The image shows a crowded street scene from an elevated perspective. The horizon is lined with buildings, hills and a cloudy sky. The brushstrokes are detailed, outlining buildings and people. The color palette is mostly dark sepia. People are gathered in groups with long shadows cast on the ground. Farther away, the street appears more crowded.
