The image depicts the Palais Rohan in Strasbourg, France, observed at night from across the Ill River. The multi-story classical building occupies the midground, illuminated by upward-facing lights. Its central section, featuring columns, a prominent pediment with ornate sculptural details, and a flagpole flying a dark flag, is bathed in warm golden light. Symmetrical wings extend to either side, also illuminated, with the far-left section displaying a slightly cooler, whiter illumination. Numerous multi-paned windows are visible across all levels. A stone balustrade runs along the lower portion of the building above the river. The sky above is dark and appears foggy or misty, obscuring any distant background details. The Ill River occupies the foreground, its dark surface reflecting the building's illuminated facade in distorted patterns. No individuals or other distinct objects are visible in the scene.
