This is a painting of a street scene filled with activity. On top of a hill are various structures, trees, and people. The buildings are predominantly green and yellow, arranged in a staggered manner up the incline. There are doors and windows in bright colors, notably a green door in the center. The color scheme is vibrant, combining earthy tones with green, blue, and red accents. People of different ages are present, engaging in various activities: some carrying items, petting animals, or playing together. Trees and foliage are visible along the sides of the image and at the top.
