The brushstrokes are sketchy and loose, with light lines outlining buildings, people, and horses. The color palette is muted, with sepia tones and grayish-black shadows. There are outlines of a horse and carriage in the foreground, while the background depicts blurred buildings, emphasizing the archway's details.
