The Five Points by Unknown Artist: A painting of a busy street scene with a large crowd. The street runs vertically through the center of the image, with buildings on either side. The buildings are two to three stories high, with chimneys on the roofs. On the left side, a white building with a sign reading "CERY" and another sign below it. A yellow building next to it with a dark roof. On the right side, a white building with a sign reading "GROCER" and a dark roof. The crowd is made up of men, women, and children. Some are standing, some are sitting, and some are fighting. A man in a blue jacket and gray pants is standing in the center. A woman in a red dress and a man in a green coat are also visible. The sky is cloudy and gray, with some pinkish hues near the horizon.
