The image is a black and white photograph of a street scene in September 1968. The photograph is taken from the side of a road, with a building on the right side of the image. The building appears to be a store or a restaurant, as there is a sign on the front of the building that reads "New York Public Library." There are several cars parked on the street in front of it, and a few trees and power lines can be seen in the background. The sky is overcast and the overall mood of the photograph is somber.
