A vertically oriented etching depicts two figures standing by a low brick wall in the foreground. One man wears a hat while another person is draped in a long cloak. Dense, gabled houses with textured, dilapidated facades fill the center. In the background, the intricate towers and slender spire of Amiens Cathedral rise under a pale sky. In the lower corners, hand-written signatures read "Arms 1926" and "John Taylor Arms 1926."
