This painting shows a quiet street scene. The street is made of large, flat stones. It's lined with old, crumbling buildings. There are a few tall trees on the left. The sky is light blue with a few clouds. The street and buildings are painted in shades of brown and gray. The trees are dark green. The artist used thick brushstrokes to create texture on the buildings and trees. You might also like to look at the work of Vasily Savinsky.
