The image displays a concrete staircase ascending from an underpass or station access point in Leipzig, Germany. The wide staircase consists of numerous grey concrete steps, with the horizontal treads showing evidence of wear and darkening from grime. It is flanked on both sides by tall, light grey concrete walls. Mounted on each wall is a stainless steel handrail, featuring a multi-segment zigzag design and secured by multiple brackets. The top of the staircase opens to a brightly illuminated, overcast sky, with two dark, tall street lighting poles visible against the bright background. The scene is devoid of people, objects, or any activity.
