About this work

This painting depicts a city street scene, with people walking up and down stairs. The artist has used a drypoint technique to create a detailed and textured image. In the foreground, a woman in a dress and hat is walking down the stairs, while a man in a coat and hat is walking up. In the background, several other people are visible, including a woman in a dress and hat standing on the stairs, and a man in a suit and hat walking down the street. The buildings in the background are tall and imposing, with many windows and a sense of depth and perspective. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of contrast and drama, with the light and dark areas of the image creating a sense of tension and energy.
