Artist, Scottish, 1865 - 1945

The image shows a narrow street scene with tall buildings on both sides. The buildings have detailed architectural features such as arched windows, ornate stonework, and gargoyle-like sculptures. The scene is depicted in an etching style with fine lines capturing shadows and textures. The color palette is monochromatic, with shades of sepia. Small figures in the distance suggest activity further along the path.
