Description
A road in the background at which depicted are two or three human figures crossing an old neighbourhood of two storey buildings. Those are attributed mainly by dark shades of brown , however one of them is presented deliberately on the right side of the painting. The wide surfaces of the warm red and the cold azure that cover unevenly its one side create a contrast between them with the total of the earthly colors. The sky functions as a neutral white background for the colours and the simplified somehow liquid drawing. In the horizon vaguely is noticeable the sun's light in a rather melancholic and poor atmosphere.
