- This print is constructed of five horizontal bands of color with a semicircular shape at the top center. The bottom-most band depicts tightly clustered organic shapes with dark borders. The next band has a short, thick, curving line in the center, and a couple other dark organic lines above it. The third and middle band has some hatching and some circular shapes. The fourth band, or the second band from the top, is made up of horizontal lines, with many hatched vertical lines over top of them, reminiscent of grass.

- Street Scene, Paris [Rue Laffitte (?) ]
- Artist
- James McNeill Whistler
- Physical Description
- This watercolor on brown prepared board is vertically oriented. The piece
- is reputedly a view of a Parisian street (perhaps in the 8th arrondissement), and the perspective is as if the viewer is on the fourth floor of an adjacent
- building. The upper two-thirds of the piece show a building-lined street,
- curving gently to the left. The buildings are about six stories tall, and
- additional rooftops are barely visible in the distance. On the ground
- floor of the buildings, there are traces of people, shops, and cafés. In
- the bottom third of the work, the road dissolves, but forms suggesting a
- few people populate the space.
