The image displays New College, University of Edinburgh, situated on The Mound in the City of Edinburgh, United Kingdom, under an overcast sky. The view is partially obscured by numerous rain droplets on the viewing surface. The central subject is a multi-story, historic building constructed from light brown ashlar stone. It features two prominent crenellated towers, one on the left and one on the right, both topped with flagpoles. A circular clock with Roman numerals is visible on the left tower, indicating a time of approximately 9:15. The roofline includes multiple ornate chimney stacks and a smaller, pointed spire rising from the central-left section. Numerous rectangular, multi-pane windows with light frames are symmetrically arranged across all visible floors of the facade, many reflecting interior light. The ground-floor main entrance, located towards the right-center, features an ornate arched doorway surmounted by intricate carved heraldic details. In the immediate foreground, a black metal fence with pointed finials runs horizontally. Beyond this fence, a sloping green lawn, well-maintained with some areas of sparse brown vegetation, extends towards the building. A second, taller black metal fence with decorative elements stands closer to the building, separating the lawn from its base. On the far right, near the building's main entrance and behind the second fence, a solitary individual is partially visible, holding an open white umbrella. A blue tarp or covering is positioned on the ground adjacent to this entrance. A street lamp with a white spherical globe is visible near the main entrance.
