The scene depicts an urban outdoor environment in Saint-Cloud, France, under an overcast, light grey sky, suggesting a dull day in late autumn or winter. A large, deciduous tree with thick, dark, bare branches occupies the left and central foreground, with a scattering of dried, light brown leaves or seed pods clinging to some branches. Immediately to the right of this tree, a dense, tall row of uniformly trimmed deciduous trees or a closely maintained hedge extends vertically, exhibiting numerous small, reddish-brown dried leaves or buds, characteristic of a formal planting. In the background, on the left side of the image, residential architecture is visible. A multi-story building with a light-colored facade, several windows, and a dark roof is prominent. Behind and to the right of this, another house with a light-colored exterior is visible, featuring a distinct reddish-brown tiled roof and a small, darker balcony-like structure on its right side. In the lower-left portion of the image, a white balustrade or fence section is present, partially obscuring a light-colored sign with blue or black text. A dark, ornate lamppost with a curved arm is positioned midground, left of center. No individuals are present within the frame.
