This painting shows a street scene with a row of buildings, the largest of which is a three-story brick structure with the word "JOHNSON" written across it. The building has multiple windows and a clock on its front. A person walks down the street in front of the buildings. The sky above is cloudy and blue. The painting is done in oil paint and features a range of colors, from the warm tones of the brick buildings to the cool tones of the sky. The overall effect is one of a quiet, everyday scene.
