The scene is captured with striking realism, highlighting the details of the individuals' clothing and expressions. Maurand's use of dark tones and bold lines creates a sense of mystery and intrigue, capturing the nocturnal atmosphere of the city. Currently, the artwork is held at the Art Institute of Chicago.
