The image is a black and white photograph of an escalator in a subway station. The escalator is located in the center of the image and is flanked by two smaller escalators on either side. The walls of the station are painted in a dark color and there are several framed pictures hanging on the walls. The floor is made of concrete and there is a tiled pattern on the floor. The ceiling is high and has recessed lighting. The image appears to be taken from a low angle, looking up at the escalator.
