This image depicts a crowded Christmas market scene at night in Place Kléber, Strasbourg, France. The upper two-thirds of the frame show a dark navy blue night sky with a distinct, bright, and nearly full moon visible in the upper right quadrant. Faint, scattered lights or stars are discernable in the upper left. In the mid-ground, a large, conical Christmas tree, densely decorated with warm white lights and spherical ornaments, stands prominently, illuminated against the dark backdrop. Behind the tree, the illuminated upper spire of Église protestante Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune is visible to the left, and a taller, darker spire of Strasbourg Cathedral is partially visible to the right. Various multi-story historic buildings with illuminated windows and traditional pitched roofs form the background on the left, while a grander, ornate building with rounded windows is visible on the far right. A classic streetlamp with a globe light is positioned in the mid-left. The lower half and foreground are filled with a dense crowd of people moving through the market. Numerous wooden market stalls with pitched roofs are visible, some adorned with string lights and garlands, indicating a festive atmosphere. A large wooden stall in the immediate right foreground consists of vertical light-colored planks. Individuals in the crowd are dressed in winter jackets, coats, and hats. In the left foreground, a man wearing a grey beanie and dark jacket is seen facing slightly left, appearing to speak with his mouth open and left hand raised. To his right and slightly behind him, a younger man with dark curly hair and a dark jacket looks forward. Further into the crowd, the backs of individuals in varied winter attire are visible, including one wearing a red Santa hat in the far right foreground. The crowd exhibits general movement and congregation within the market area.
