From the Artist: The colors are used for emotional response rather than to determine actual hues of buildings, boats and water.
From the Painting Guide: The bright, vibrant colors of the street against of the disorder of the clouds presents an enticing, merry vision. This contrasts with the relatively placid lapping waters and subdued tones of the boats in the foreground. It's a painting which suggests the viewer is being pulled towards the metropolis, where a great time is to be had.
