The image depicts a multi-story building located on Calle Carlos Marx in the city of Gijón/Xixón, Spain, identifiable as the Antiguo Mercado del Sur (now Plaza de las Cigarreras). The building's upper facade features a large mural commemorating the Asturian Revolution of October 1934. The mural portrays a red-toned, heroic male figure, possibly a miner, with a tool resembling a pickaxe or hammer in his right hand and a rifle or spear in his left, against a dark background. Above the figure, the text reads "ASTURIES / OCTOBRE 1934," and below him, "LA LLIBERTÁ / NUN SE PIDE / CONQUISTASE!" (Freedom is not asked for, it is conquered!).

The building itself exhibits a light blue and reddish-brown architectural design with numerous rectangular windows. A distinct angular light-blue section is visible on the left side. At street level, a concrete overhang extends from the building. Below this, there are ground-floor windows and a wall adorned with graffiti and posters, including visible text such as "CCOO UGT..." and "1º MAYO ORGANIZATE Y LUCHA" (May 1st, Organize and Fight).

In the foreground, several vehicles are partially visible, including the front section of a white "Llano" van with a roof rack, and parts of other cars. A yellow street light on a pole stands on the left. The sky above is clear and bright blue, with a single white bird (likely a seagull) flying in the upper right. No individuals are visible in the scene. The lighting suggests daytime conditions.
