The image shows a woman walking along a street. She is to the right of the image, facing right. The woman has curly hair under a large bonnet and wears a layered dress typical of late 19th-century fashion. She appears to be holding an umbrella or parasol. The background shows shopfronts along the street, including a fish shop with a "Solomon Salmon Fishmonger" sign, as well as other shops offering different goods and services like vegetables and shoe repair. The street is wide and empty, allowing a clear view of the shops and the woman as she walks by.
