Looking west along Pennsylvania Avenue toward the dome of the United States Capitol, with streetcars, horse-drawn wagons and pedestrians sharing the broad roadway. Rows of trees line the avenue, and tall commercial buildings — including a rounded brick block at left and a tower-topped structure at right — frame the view. The card is numbered 110 in a common early view series of the capital's principal thoroughfare.
White border at bottom carrying the printed caption; fine halftone/lithographic dot texture typical of tinted view cards.
Undivided back with printed "POST CARD" heading and "This side for the Address"; no postmark, no message, no address written. Publisher imprint Foster & Reynolds, 1 Madison Avenue, New York. Clean, lightly toned card stock.
