Here is a description of the image:

This is a black and white negative image of what appears to be a circus setting. A large circus tent or indoor arena with a high, grid-like metal structure ceiling is visible. Underneath, there is a circular stage or ring.

The foreground features several animals, including an elephant with a person riding on top, a zebra, and a deer. There are human figures standing near the animals, possibly trainers or performers.

In the background, there are more people and animals including horses, possibly part of an act. At the back of the arena, a stage is set up with performers, one of whom is doing a handstand on top of another performer.

The lighting seems to be coming from multiple sources, and the image has a high contrast look with light areas appearing bright and dark areas appearing very dark. This contributes to the slightly ghostly or surreal quality. There are several props, rigging, and equipment hanging from the ceiling or positioned around the arena, typical of a circus environment.

The number "41253" is written at the top of the image.
