The scene depicts the exterior of the former Fábrica de Tabacos, now known as Tabacalera Promoción del Arte, located at Calle de Embajadores, 51, in Madrid, Spain, under a clear blue sky. The dominant subject is a multi-story, reddish-brown brick building characterized by intricate decorative brickwork, numerous white-framed windows (some arched, some rectangular), and prominent vertical buttresses terminating in decorative finials at the roofline. Leafless deciduous tree branches partially obscure the upper sections of the building and the sky. In the foreground, a paved street shows distinct shadows. A white Madrid taxi, with a visible red stripe and "TAXI" text, is positioned on the left side of the street. On the right, the rear section of a large white tanker truck is visible, displaying hazard placards for flammable liquid and corrosive substances. Two individuals are standing on the steps near the central main entrance of the building, engaged in conversation, while a third person is partially visible further right near an adjacent entrance. Blue plastic traffic barriers line the curb along the street.
