The image is a black and white photograph of a large, ornate building with a square in front of it. The building appears to be a government or government building, as there are several columns and arched windows on the front facade. The square is made up of cobblestones and there are a few people walking around the square. The sky is overcast and the overall mood of the image is gloomy. The photograph is taken from a low angle, looking up at the building from across the square, giving a sense of depth and perspective.
