Convoi Funèbre au Boulevard de Clichy (Funeral Procession on the Boulevard de Clichy)
The image shows a street scene with a cobblestone road, buildings on the right, a carriage on the left, and structures in the distance. A sign reads "Palais de Clichy" against the backdrop of a glowing sun or moon. Loose brushstrokes create movement in the sky and shadows on the road, giving a sketch-like quality. The color palette comprises sepia, dark brown, and dusty blue tones. Figures on foot and carriages suggest urban life during the period.
