Image description
The image shows a street scene with a square filled with people and pigeons. A large building with multiple arches dominates the middle section of the painting. The brushstrokes are loose and fluid, typical of a watercolor technique. The color palette includes earthy tones with hints of blue, green, and red. Various clothing colors on the figures add interest to the composition, and street lamps are shown on the street.
