This is a drawing of the interior of a streetcar or tram. The artwork portrays the inside of a vintage streetcar, with wooden benches lining the sides and metal poles for standing passengers. The perspective is from the front towards the back of the car, looking down a narrow aisle. Overhead, there are hand straps hanging for standing passengers, and the ceiling is adorned with ventilation grilles. The large windows allow natural light to fill the space, revealing the detailed textures of the wooden flooring and the seats. The door at the end of the carriage is closed, with a section of the city visible through the glass.
