The image depicts an urban street scene that appears to be captured in negative format, giving it a distinctive, surreal visual effect. In the foreground is a corner of a building, which partially conceals a sign with the word "HOTEL" attached to the side, along with a streetlamp extending from the building. The wall of this building is covered with numerous posters advertising various events or businesses. In the background, there's a traffic sign, specifically a no entry sign visible, and further down the street, several vehicles are parked along the curb. A large building with classic architectural features sits across the street, completing the scene that likely represents a typical street view in a city, possibly in Europe given the language ("Hôtel") and style of the architecture. The reversal of light and dark areas due to the negative effect gives the image a moody and dramatic appearance.
