The image depicts a nighttime urban street scene in Osaka, Japan, characterized by artificial lighting and wet, reflective pavement. The central subject is a two-story commercial building, illuminated primarily by red and orange neon signs and lanterns. On the building's ground floor, an establishment with a roll-down shutter entrance is prominently decorated with a string of small orange lanterns and a large vertical red lantern displaying the Japanese characters for "ホルモン" (Horumon). A red sign also advertises "かすうどん" (Kasu Udon) and "串牛ホルモン" (Kushi Gyu Horumon). Adjacent to this, to the left, is an open-front bar area where two indistinct figures are seated, one seen from behind in a dark jacket. Above the ground floor, multiple illuminated signs are visible, including a prominent red neon sign reading "SHOT BAR R.B." and a rectangular sign stating "magic shop" with Japanese text "ひげめがね" (Higemegane). The building's upper facade is a lighter, weathered color, with several external air conditioning units and exposed wiring. In the foreground, slightly right of center, a male subject is captured mid-stride, partially cropped. He wears a light-colored hooded sweatshirt, a dark jacket, red pants, and a light-colored baseball cap, and is looking towards the left side of the frame. The pavement in front of the building is wet and exhibits a cobblestone pattern, reflecting the red and orange light. To the left of the main entrance, a stack of four silver metal kegs or containers rests on the pavement. To the right of the entrance, a stack of three brown wooden crates is positioned. A small, dark stone formation is also visible at the base of the building.
