View of an intersection of Strand Road and Gostha Paul Sarani at the Eden Gardens cricket grounds along the Hooghly River. Docked ships can be seen along the river on the left, and a horse-drawn carriage stands in the middle of the intersection. A man sits on a railing in the foreground beside a man who stands next to him. A stone wall decorated with a perforated circle pattern runs around the corner on the far side of the street with a man sitting on it.
