About this work
A busy street scene unfolds before a red-brick gateway topped with a pediment, with figures silhouetted along the wall above and white firework bursts and birds in the sky. In the foreground a mixed crowd gathers: a man selling balloons, women and children, a naval officer in a white cap, a couple with a boy, a man reading a newspaper, a cyclist and a small dog.
Brick red, olive green and pale grey define the architecture and crowd, punctuated by the bright balloons and a red headscarf. Loose, sketch-like brushwork and a slightly muted, overcast light suit the busy multi-figure composition, giving the holiday gathering an animated, documentary genre-painting feel.
