A vertically oriented lithograph depicts an older woman with medium-light skin tone standing and facing our right. She tilts her head back with her mouth wide open in song. She wears a loose, dark dress, a neck scarf, and a cap. To our right, a potted plant sits in a window. Text at the top reads "PHYSIONOMIES PARISIENNES," while lyrics and the title "LA CHANSON DES RUES" appear below.
