Quiet street

Tall trees with dense green crowns dominate the left two-thirds of the composition, arching over a paved street that curves toward a multi-story cream building on the right. Wrought-iron balconies, tall shuttered windows and a green cornice line the façade, while patches of sunlight fall across the empty pavement below.

Broken strokes of green, yellow-green and touches of blue sky render the foliage, set against warmer ochre and cream tones in the architecture. Strong midday light creates sharp shadow patches on the street, and the loose, sketch-like handling gives the scene a fresh, sun-warmed, plein-air quality.
