This appears to be a collage or a blue-toned photograph that has been painted over. In the center is the blue-toned photograph, which depicts a blurry crowd of people who face away from us, looking towards the windows of a train on the left. People seem to lean out of the windows of the train, looking towards the crowd below them. Surrounding this central photograph are the painted designs of abstract leaves and branches, along with brightly-colored squares and rectangles in orange, green, blue, and purple hues.
