The image displays a low-angle view of the Arc de Triomphe at night, located in Place Charles de Gaulle (formerly Place de l'Étoile) in Paris, France. The monumental neoclassical structure is constructed from light-colored stone and is illuminated from below by warm artificial lighting, casting subtle shadows and highlighting its architectural details against a dark, clear sky.

The central feature is the massive main archway, revealing a coffered ceiling within its interior. On the visible façades, numerous large sculptural groups and bas-reliefs depicting figures and scenes are prominent. Specifically, a large sculptural relief is visible on the lower section of the right pier, and another on the lower left. Smaller rectangular bas-reliefs are situated above the arch's spandrels. A decorative frieze with continuous figures runs along the structure's entablature, beneath a prominent cornice.

Through the main archway, the distant outlines of other illuminated buildings and streetlights are faintly visible, indicating an urban setting. At the very bottom of the image, indistinct human figures are discernible, suggesting public access to the monument. The scene is devoid of overt action or interaction, focusing primarily on the illuminated architecture.
