A row of timber houses with warm lit windows and porch lanterns curves away into mist. Carved pumpkins glow on steps and railings. Wet pavement scattered with fallen leaves picks up the amber light in long reflections.

A few dark silhouettes, one in a pointed hat and others carrying small lanterns, walk down the middle of the road. A pale moon breaks through heavy clouds above bare, orange-leafed trees and a single glowing street lamp. The brushwork is loose and textured, and the palette stays in smoky olive, umber and burnt orange.
