Lauriston Street - east side, looking north
Description
Furniture for sale is laid out on the street around Menelaws' Shop on Lauriston Street, Edinburgh. Two boys inspect some chairs and a couple are standing outside the shop. There is a row of houses with dormer windows. One building has large arched windows and an impressive façade with balustrade parapet. Pedestrians walk along the street, including a family wearing straw hats. A horse and cart is making its way up the road. A boy leans out of one of the windows.
