The image shows a street view of a building from the front. The focus is on the building itself, and there is no distinct horizon visible. The structure is portrayed with a soft, textured technique using light and sketchy pencil strokes, giving an impressionistic feel. The color palette is mainly various shades of gray against an off-white background. Several figures are seen near the building's entrance, which appears to be a storefront with a sign over the door. The figures are loosely rendered, providing a suggestion of people. In the distance, the upper part of the building displays windows and architectural details.
