The image depicts a simple pencil sketch on brown paper, featuring a street scene. The scene shows a two-story building with a steeply pitched roof and chimneys across the top. The building to the left and center has a slanted roof with multiple windows on the second floor and a smaller window and door on the first floor. To the right, another building with a similar roofline and windows is shown. In the foreground on the left, two horses are harnessed to a cart. A leafless tree is drawn on the right side. The background features a simple sketch of more buildings. The sketch, titled "Temple", is by James McNeill Whistler.
