A painting titled "The Garbage Cart" by William P. Chappel, depicting a street scene. The painting shows a road with a horse-drawn cart in the center, with a driver wearing a white hat. The cart has two large wheels and is pulled by a dark-colored horse. Two people are on the sidewalk to the left and right of the cart, one woman carrying a basket and the other a child. The road is lined with trees and several buildings, including a yellow two-story building on the right with a staircase leading up to a door. There are several other buildings in the background, some with brick facades and others with wooden facades. The sky above is light-colored and hazy. The overall scene is rendered in muted colors.
