About this work

This painting shows a wide, empty street in the foreground, with a row of trees and buildings along the right side. The street is light-colored, and the trees and buildings are darker. The sky above is cloudy and gray. In the distance, you can see more trees and buildings, but they are not very clear. The painting has a lot of brown and yellow colors, which makes it look old-fashioned.
