The image depicts a nighttime scene in the Largo do Cruzeiro de São Francisco, located within the Pelourinho district of Salvador, Brazil. A live music performance is taking place on a raised wooden stage situated on the cobblestone square. Three male musicians are actively performing: a keyboardist wearing a yellow shirt and a red cap, a guitarist in dark attire, and a drummer dressed in a blue shirt. Musical instruments and equipment, including a keyboard, guitars, a drum kit, microphones, and speakers on stands, are arranged on and around the stage, illuminated by stage lights. Behind the performing band, a large white stone cross stands centrally in the square. Dominating the background is the illuminated Igreja e Convento de São Francisco (Church and Convent of Saint Francis), distinguished by its ornate façade and two prominent bell towers. Historic colonial-style buildings, featuring multiple stories, balconies, and white-framed windows, line both sides of the square. These buildings are painted in various bright colors, including blue, green, yellow, and white. Several pedestrians are present on the cobblestone street; two women are visible walking on the left side, and other individuals are scattered further back, some seated at outdoor tables on the right. A light-colored truck with a raised bed is positioned on the left side of the square, behind the pedestrians. The entire scene is artificially illuminated by streetlights, shop lights, and stage lights under a dark night sky.
