A wood engraving in dense black-inked lines depicts a curving cobblestone street receding toward a tall church spire. On the left, a building displays a black feline and "OIR." To the right, a corner shop bears "A L'AMI PIERRE" and "VINS LIQUERS" signs. Several figures inhabit the street. Heavy, dark hatching creates tumultuous clouds, while deep shadows and diagonal strokes define the architecture. "V. Fiala" signs the lower right.
