Tilting chair before yellow walls and blue doors

A brightly brushed fictional street scene places a person on a bent wooden chair with feet raised and one hand reaching left, while a red-haired figure reaches behind it. Yellow walls, blue doors and empty chairs recede across cobbles covered in small colour marks and golden leaves.
