Summery scene of a Parisian square bathed in a pink and mauve light, painted in an Impressionist style. To the left of the composition is a terrace of tall Parisian townhouse-style buildings with shops and cafés at street level; forming a second side of the square is a similar building with a narrow street running down its left side and a wider road with motorcars travelling on it to the right. The branches of a large leafy tree protude in to the picture from the right. A number of figures populate the scene, although there are none in the foreground, which is in bright sunlight, the buildings to the left cast shadows on the white ground.
