The image depicts a black and white drawing of a cityscape. Two people sit on a railing in the foreground on the right side. The people are wearing dark and light colored clothing and have their backs turned. They are looking down over a city with many buildings. The buildings are densely packed and have multiple roofs visible. The roofs are made of shingles or tiles. There are chimneys emitting smoke on several buildings. The sky is cloudy and gray. The image has a title at the bottom that reads "LE QUARTIER DES GOBELINS". The artist's signature is visible in the bottom right corner. The image is printed on a beige background.
