The two authors comment on the painting (in danish): "in 1845 he carried out a painting in which he further varied the street scene with figures in windy weather. In the painting, which eckersberg himself dubbed" a storm", he tried to paint a phenomenon, which no painters have previously painted, dust clouds swirl up from the street because of the strong wind". A group of people are exposed to the dust and the wind. Two women have difficulty keeping their scarves on their heads and a gentleman tries to keep his hat on his head, while a little street urchin (gadedreng) is running after his hat.
