The image depicts a daytime scene along a section of the Ill River in the European Quarter of Strasbourg, France, looking generally southeast. The foreground is dominated by the blue-tinted water of the river, exhibiting small ripples and reflections of the sky and light. The sun is reflecting off the water surface towards the left side of the frame. On the left bank, a large, modern building with a distinct grid-patterned glass facade, identifiable as the European Parliament (Louise Weiss building), occupies the mid-ground. Docked alongside this building is a white, modern houseboat or floating establishment with an upper deck featuring multiple open umbrellas and outdoor seating. Further down the left bank, other smaller boats or barges are partially visible. The bank itself is reinforced with a concrete or stone wall. On the right bank, a continuous line of mature green trees borders the river. Behind these trees, a multi-story residential building with terracotta-colored roof sections and balconies is visible. This bank also features a concrete or stone retaining wall. In the background, three prominent, tall, contemporary high-rise towers are visible, two with dark facades and one with a reddish-dark facade, consistent with Les Black Swans residential towers. A bridge, likely Pont d'Ostwald, spans the river in the mid-distance, partially obscured by the surrounding urban structures and the river's perspective. The sky is clear blue with a faint, wispy contrail extending horizontally across the upper frame. No individuals, specific actions, or interactions are clearly discernible within the scene.
