A multi-story building on the right side extends into the distance, with windows outlined clearly and walls painted in muted tones. On the left, faint outlines of other buildings can be seen in the distance. The street leads towards an implied horizon. The color palette is subdued, featuring neutral browns, soft greens, and pale blues.
