Streets and Fares of Berlin: Under the Linden Trees

Charles Laborde

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a lively street scene with a large crowd of people. The scene is set in front of a building with archways and storefronts. The storefronts have large signs reading "Likör", "Benz", and "Mercedes". A horse-drawn carriage with a driver is visible. The crowd consists of men, women, and children dressed in clothing typical of the early 20th century, including suits, hats, and dresses. Some people are walking, while others are standing still. A few individuals are wearing military uniforms. The color palette is muted, with shades of gray, black, and white dominating the scene, accented by touches of red, blue, and yellow. The overall atmosphere appears to be one of bustling activity and urban life.
