The image captures the aftermath of destruction, with a partially destroyed brick building featuring a distinctive stepped gable roof design typical of industrial architecture of that era.

A large stone or brick arch structure is visible in the middle ground, and some figures can be seen standing near it, giving scale to the structure.
