Clouds are lightly indicated, as is smoke rising from several chimneys in the village.<br /> On plate lower right: "St. Paul, Alpes, Maritimes/Arms 1927".

In this strongly vertical composition, a tall archway frames a view of the chatoic maze of further arches, roofs, walls and windows along a small, winding side street. The artist selectively describes various material details, such as the stones and bricks of the walls, and the sagging tile roofs. All elements in the image seem to register the effects of time.<br /> The title “STREET IN PORTO MAURIZIO” is etched by hand in the plate just below the lower left edge of the composition.
