The image is a black and white photograph of a busy street scene. The street is made of brick pavers and there is a manhole cover in the center of the pavement. There are several people walking on the street, some of them are carrying bags, while others are walking away from the camera. On the left side of the image, there are buildings and shops on both sides of the street. The sky is overcast and there are trees and lampposts visible in the background. The image appears to be taken from a low angle, looking down the street towards the manhole.
