Street at Saverne by James McNeill Whistler: A black and white etching of a street scene. The street runs from the bottom center of the image and curves to the right in the distance. The buildings on the left side of the street are tall and narrow with steeply pitched roofs. They are four stories with windows on each floor. The building on the right side of the image is a tall wall with no visible features. The sky above is dark and cloudy. The buildings cast deep shadows on the street and on each other. The artist's use of lines creates a sense of texture and depth in the image.
