This painting shows a busy street in a sunlit town. White buildings with flat roofs crowd together, their walls rough and warm. People walk along the narrow path—some in robes, others in hats—while a camel stands still near the center. A tall tower with a clock rises above the crowd, and a lantern hangs from a wall on the right. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured look. The light hits the buildings unevenly, making some areas glow while others stay shadowy. This style reminds me of impasto.
