This is an urban street scene with a horse-drawn carriage and people walking on a cobblestone road. The scene shows a bustling street with a prominent horse-drawn omnibus in the center, surrounded by buildings and a small crowd of people. To the right, there are steps leading up, with individuals sitting or standing around, some holding umbrellas. Several other scenes are depicted in an overlay style, with additional activities and architecture rendered in a sketch-like manner. The drawing has a sepia tone.
