The image depicts a street view looking towards the corner of a building and a café. The horizon is not visible as the view is focused upward, capturing architectural elements and buildings. The brushstrokes are clean and linear. The color palette consists of black and white tones. A building with shutters and balconies is on the right, with a café and outdoor tables visible beyond it. In the distance, there is a decorative element atop a fence in a courtyard. Swirling line patterns are used to depict the sky.
