The image is an etching of a narrow street view. The perspective is from within a shadowed alleyway looking towards a small plaza. In the center is a large building that resembles a church or hall, with a dome and steeple. The sky serves as the horizon. The etching features confident lines creating contrasts between light and shadow. The color palette is monochromatic with varying shades of brown and sepia. Several figures are visible in the shaded area, and in the distance, other structures can be seen.
