CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION
An urban scene of a street corner with two figures walking in the street in front of a square, mauve-coloured building: a figure pushing a pram, and a person wearing a mid-length coat. A large, yellow building is partially in the frame on the right hand side. There is a telephone pole on the street corner on the right and one farther back on the left. In the background, a steam train with several cars (vehicle) runs across the image. The street is blue and grey, except where the central building is reflected on it in a warm yellow-orange.
