About this work
A solitary woman in a pink dress and dark coat, holding a striped umbrella, walks across a rain-soaked square in the foreground. To the left stands a yellow neoclassical building with columns, while autumn trees in orange and green foliage fill the middle ground; further back, other pedestrians shelter under umbrellas and a horse-drawn carriage with a blue canopy waits near the buildings.
Wet pavement is rendered in broad grey and beige strokes that catch reflected light, contrasting with the warmer ochre facade and rust-colored foliage. The loose, wet-on-wet brushwork and soft, overcast sky convey a damp autumn afternoon, lending the square a quiet, subdued mood.
