The image shows a street view with a road stretching into the distance. The horizon is low in the composition with a small bridge or overpass visible. Trees line the left side, while lamp posts and buildings are on the right. The brushstrokes are expressive, capturing the scene in a loose manner. The color palette is subdued with grays and browns, giving a wintry ambiance. A figure in dark clothing is walking on the right sidewalk towards the viewer.
