View of the entrance to a building, taken from a cobblestoned courtyard. A cat sits on the steps leading to the entrance, while a second cat sits on the cobblestones to the right of the entrance. Ivy grows on the building's facade along the wall and over the doorway. In an alcove, above the doorway, is a bust of a man with a beard. A bird, possibly a pigeon, sits on the man's head.
