A vertically oriented color lithograph with hand coloring depicts the ornate stone porch of a cathedral. Left, a large pillar stands near a man in a red jacket resting beside a basket. Centered on stone steps, a woman in a blue skirt and red shawl sits with a child standing before her. Right, intricate rows of carved human figures decorate the deep entryway leading toward a sunlit street.
