A busy street with shopfronts under low awnings on the left, where white cloths hang from the frames and a ladder leans against a wall. Several men, a child and a woman in a long dark dress walk along the cobbled road, and more people stand in the shaded arcade and the doorways in the background. A palm tree and flat-roofed buildings rise behind the street.
