The image is a black and white photograph of a busy waterfront area. The photo is taken from a high vantage point, looking down on the promenade and the sea. On the left side of the image, there are several buildings with large windows and balconies, and on the right side, there is a large building with a dome-shaped roof. The buildings appear to be old and dilapidated, with some of them having ornate architectural details.

In the center of the photo, we can see a large group of people walking along the pier, with a few people sitting on benches and walking on the sidewalk. The pier extends out into the sea, and there are a few boats visible on the water. The sky is overcast, and the overall mood of the photograph is somber and desolate.
