The painting depicts a city scene with people walking and standing along the street. The street is lined with buildings and there is a row of trees on the right side. The colors are soft and the style used is impressionism, which is known for its broad brush strokes and representation of light and color. The outlines of buildings loom in the distance, while the tracks of wheels of vehicles can be seen on the road. The signature in the bottom right corner suggests that this is the work of Claude Monet.

Claude Oscar Monet (1840-1926). A native Parisian, who thoroughly developed the idea of Impressionism. Monet almost scientifically studied the effect of light on different objects. He devoted himself to so called transitory states, which quickly led him to work with colour and light, his paintings acting on the viewer from the first impression. His use of open-air painting and objects which were special only because of light opened the way for the beginnings of modern painting. Monet’s Impression, Sunrise (1874) not only gave the name to the whole art movement, but secured Monet a place among the best painters of all times. At one time, he resided in London and created his famous study Houses of Parliament (Monet wondered, How could the English painters paint Parliament when it cannot be seen for the fog?). In the Giverny, which became his favourite retreat after the death of his wife, he painted motifs from his garden and the popular series Water Lilies - the world of the water was as poetic and mysterious as a primordial paradise.
