label: Description
content: Vertical sheet with view of buildings on either side of a narrow road with figures. The road bends to the right, and lining the street at left are multi-story half-timbered structures, their second stories overhanging deeply and supported by larger wooden brackets. Many have their shutters open, and the upper story windows shielded by a canopy when the shutters are not present. The roofs are steeply pitched and lined with tiles. At the bottom of the sheet, the artist has given a guide for colors seen here.
