The image is a black and white photograph of a busy street scene. There are several horse-drawn carriages lined up along the street, with a group of people walking on the sidewalk on the right side of the image. On the left side, there is a large building with a dome-shaped roof and a clock tower. In the background, there are several boats on the water and a pier extending into the distance. The sky is overcast and the overall mood of the photograph is somber. The photograph appears to be from the early 20th century.
