The image is a monochrome print, likely a woodcut or linocut, depicting an exterior scene with historical urban and semi-urban elements. In the immediate foreground, the left side shows the front section of a horse-drawn tram, featuring a driver/conductor with a hat visible. The tram displays multiple side windows and a distinctive roof structure. The right foreground contains sparse, stylized vegetation, appearing spiky. The midground features a set of parallel tram tracks extending into the distance. On these tracks, a second, more distant horse-drawn tram is visible, being pulled by a team of multiple horses (approximately four are discernible). Several low-rise, single-story buildings with simple facades, doors, and windows line the path alongside the tracks. The background is dominated by a large, prominent hill identified as the Cerro de Montevideo. A fortified structure, likely the Fortaleza General Artigas, is visible at its summit. Below the Cerro, a settlement composed of numerous small, clustered buildings extends across the landscape. The sky above the hill is rendered with stylized, horizontal cloud formations. The scene depicts a historical view of Montevideo, Uruguay, specifically oriented towards the Cerro de Montevideo, showcasing early 20th-century transportation infrastructure and architecture in a peripheral or transitional urban area.
