The image is a black and white photograph of a man standing on a cobblestone street at night. He is holding a large white flag that is blowing in the wind. The man is facing away from the camera and appears to be walking towards the right side of the image. In the background, there is a crowd of people watching the man and the flag. The street is lined with trees and there are buildings visible in the distance. The sky is dark and the overall mood of the photograph is somber.
