This black and white photograph represents an alley surrounded by brick buildings. The building that is seen at the end of the alley has an arched entrance. Emerging from the alley is a middle-aged white woman, carrying something in her left arm, with a full basket hanging from the same arm. A bollard stands in the middle of the alley entrance, and to the right of the bollard, in the lower right corner of the image, is another figure.
In the right foreground, in a bare space that may be near a stream, a woman tends a fire that heats a kettle, while a man holds a pig for scalding. A few logs lie in the left foreground. The grassy slope of the deep foreground rises to a level ridge in the middle ground, where tall, nearly leafless trees rise as silhouettes against the sky, on the left. Just beyond the top of the slope on the left is the upper part of a large building with several chimneys. An outbuilding is closer on the right. Near the top of the slope, left of center, a woman walks with a basket on her head. There may be another, more distant figure at the far left. The moon is high in the center of a sky with few clouds.
