The image captures a nighttime scene in a public square in Strasbourg, France, directly in front of the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg. The grand Gothic facade of the cathedral is illuminated by an elaborate light projection, displaying swirling, abstract patterns of blue, white, and gray, which animate its detailed architectural features. Several bright, focused beams of white light originate from the ground level, projecting upwards and across the scene. In the midground, a series of contemporary art installations are prominently featured. These consist of several stylized "trees" with vibrant pink or magenta colored trunks and branches, each adorned with multiple spherical white lights. Some of these structures are integrated into low, dark wooden platforms that serve as seating areas. A dense green plant is situated within one of these wooden planters. Scattered across the dark, paved ground of the square are numerous individuals and small groups. Some people are seated on the wooden platforms, while others stand, observing the light display and installations. Due to the low light conditions, specific details of their appearance or interactions are indistinct, but their presence indicates a public gathering. To the right, a dark multi-story building with some illuminated windows is partially visible, indicating an adjacent urban structure. The sky is completely dark, consistent with a night setting.
