The image depicts the ornate facade of the former Ecole des Arts Décoratifs de Strasbourg, now part of the Haute École des Arts du Rhin (HEAR), located at 1 Rue de l'Académie, Strasbourg, France. The building features a light yellow brick facade with prominent reddish-brown stone at its lower base. The architecture includes multiple arched windows with dark frames, some showing light-colored interior curtains. Decorative brickwork friezes are visible above the windows on each floor and along the cornice beneath the gray, sloped roof. A small, arched decorative element tops the central section of the roofline. The central vertical axis of the facade is dominated by a multi-section mural or fresco. The uppermost section of this mural features a draped female allegorical figure, possibly representing "Pictura," holding a book or scroll and an instrument. Below this, the mural transitions through stylized Art Nouveau elements including flowing lines, geometric shapes (a sphere and a cube), and an ornate classical urn on which the word "Pictura" is clearly inscribed. The lowest section of this central mural depicts a standing male figure, partially clad, holding what appears to be a mallet and chisel, poised next to a smaller sculpted bust or statue, likely representing "Sculptura." Between the arched windows on the middle visible floor, horizontal decorative panels feature intricate floral and fruit motifs, including pomegranates and foliage, rendered in vibrant colors against a lighter background. The scene is observed under a partly cloudy sky. The building is partially framed by lush green trees; large leafy branches are silhouetted against the sky in the upper left, while a dense green tree obscures the lower right portion of the facade. There are no visible people or discernible actions in the immediate foreground, but construction fencing is partially visible at the very bottom of the image, suggesting a street-level vantage point.
