The image shows buildings in an impressionistic style. A taller building, possibly a church, is visible near the center right. The horizon is depicted with lines. The artwork uses loose brushstrokes to suggest architectural forms. The color palette is primarily grayscale. The sky is left untouched, emphasizing the landscape.
