The image captures the Mont des Arts area in Brussels, Belgium, at dusk or early evening, looking towards the city center. In the immediate foreground, a dark metal railing separates the viewing platform from the scene below. On the left, the Royal Library of Belgium (KBR), a large light-colored stone building, features numerous vertical recessed panels illuminated from below with yellow-orange light, creating prominent vertical light streaks. A meticulously trimmed line of dark green hedges runs horizontally below the illuminated building. The midground features the geometrically designed, terraced Mont des Arts garden descending into the distance, characterized by dark hedges outlining pathways with visible streetlights. Beyond the garden, a cluster of older European-style buildings with illuminated windows is visible. An equestrian statue stands in the garden's distant section. On the far right horizon, the distinctive Gothic spire of the Brussels Town Hall is silhouetted against the transitioning sky. The sky is a deep blue at the top, gradually lightening towards the horizon where scattered grey and white clouds are present. Artificial lights from buildings, streetlights, and the Mont des Arts facade are active. Five individuals are observed from behind in the foreground. On the left, one person wears a dark top, light-colored wide-leg pants, and carries a white tote bag; another wears a red jacket and dark pants; and a third is partially obscured. On the right, one person wears a dark jacket, carries a brown shoulder bag, and holds a smartphone, apparently capturing the scene; another individual is partially obscured beside them. The top of a sixth person's head is visible at the bottom center. Distant, indistinct human figures are visible on the garden pathways.
