A vertically oriented print in fine black ink strokes on beige paper depicts a town square crowded with people at market stalls. In the foreground, one figure pushes a cart across the light ground. Behind them rise tall, ornate buildings, including a structure with thin spires. Densely layered strokes create texture and deep shadows across the architectural facades, while briefer lines suggest the bustling activity in the market square below.
