An adult male is captured mid-descent on a wide, weathered granite staircase at the Monument to 1300 Years of Bulgaria in Shumen, Bulgaria. The male, positioned towards the center-right, wears a white hooded sweatshirt, a light grey jacket, black pants, white sneakers, and dark sunglasses, looking to the right out of frame. Behind him, the monumental, angular concrete structure rises, exhibiting visible weathering, streaks, and discoloration. A stylized concrete lion's head is prominently featured on the upper right section of the monument, while a recessed relief sculpture of figures is visible within a section on the left. The grey granite steps display cracks and yellow-orange lichen or staining. To the left of the staircase, a concrete retaining wall also shows cracks and discoloration, with an external conduit affixed vertically. The sky above is overcast and light grey. Sparse, bare tree branches are visible on the far right horizon above a concrete wall.
