The image shows a city street with tall buildings on both sides. A large bridge spans across the horizon in the center, connecting the buildings. The bridge's structure, including its cables and arches, stands out. The artwork features fine etching for depth and shadow, with a monochrome color palette of black and sepia. Figures and an old-style vehicle are seen on the street, leading towards the bridge.
