The scene depicts an urban street at night in Sallaumines, France. The foreground presents a dark, granular surface, consistent with wet asphalt or pavement, showing scattered reflections from light sources. A faint, light-colored line is visible on the left side, demarcating the edge of a roadway. The street extends into the background, illuminated by multiple warm-toned streetlights, causing reflective areas on the damp surface. Several vehicles are present: a car with active headlights is partially visible on the left midground, and another vehicle with illuminated red taillights is positioned further down the street. Multi-story buildings line both sides of the thoroughfare; those on the left display dark or covered window openings, while those on the right feature lighter-colored facades. In the far distance, a series of white or blue festive string lights are strung across the street. No individuals are visible.
