A vertically oriented drypoint and roulette print in black ink depicts a sunlit street scene. On our left, a tall palm with feathered fronds and a stone block stand beside blocky buildings. In the center middle ground, a solitary figure in a dark cloak walks away from us. Hatched lines and stippled textures create sharp shadows against the white paper, emphasizing high contrast. Another palm tree rises to our right in the background.
