Palms and breadfruit trees close the scene under a clear sky. The painting belongs to the school of Cap-Haïtien, the northern Haitian town whose painters, following Philomé Obin, recorded the daily life of the streets and villages with careful drawing, flat clear colour and an even, shadowless light. Every figure has its task and every house its colour; the composition is as orderly as the village it shows. Signed and inscribed with the town, as the Cap-Haïtien painters usually did.
