A Little Hop in Harley Street is a 1863 by George Louis Palmella Busson Du Maurier, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting shows a scene of people on a street in England. It's an everyday moment, but what's interesting is the way the artist used light and shadow to create a sense of depth. The people in the scene seem to be going about their daily business, unaware of being watched. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of chiaroscuro.
