The image shows a brick building with arched windows and a street sign reading "BRATTLE SQ". A spherical object appears in the upper part of the view. The building has angular lines and decorative cornices. A cobblestone street and a horse-drawn carriage are partially visible. The color palette is in sepia tones with brown and beige hues. Light and shadow contrast is created by sunlight on the building's façade.
