About this work

This painting shows a narrow street between two tall, crumbling buildings. The walls are rough and uneven, painted in earthy browns and greens. A person in a white dress stands under an archway, holding what looks like a red bundle. Another figure is cut off at the bottom right, half-hidden by the wall. The buildings have small, dark windows and a few plants growing on the roof. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the scene a rough, textured look. This style is an example of impasto.
