The image displays an evening street scene in Lisbon, Portugal, featuring a prominent stone bas-relief on the facade of a building. The central element is an elaborate carving of a large, three-masted sailing ship with multiple sails unfurled, depicted atop stylized waves. A banner beneath the ship carries the inscription "BANCO NACIONAL ULTRAMARINO" in capital letters. The carving is affixed to a light-colored, possibly marble or limestone, building wall, which exhibits natural veining and some signs of age. Above the carving, the building features several rectangular windows, glowing brightly from internal illumination, indicating that it is evening or night. To the right, a black wrought-iron balcony extends from an upper floor. At street level, there is a traditional Portuguese pavement (calçada portuguesa) made of small, irregularly shaped light and dark-colored stone tiles, arranged to form decorative patterns, including swirling shapes. Artificial light sources cast long, dark shadows of unseen street furniture or architecture across this patterned sidewalk. On the far right, a poster or advertisement is visible inside a display window. It features a close-up portrait of a man, and partial text can be deciphered, reading "MEU NOME A..." (likely "MEU NOME É...") and "fotografia de Teresa Cab...". The scene evokes a blend of historical architecture and urban ambiance under artificial lighting.
