The image captures a wide-angle view of the Mont des Arts in Brussels, Belgium, looking northwest towards the city center under a clear, sunny sky. In the immediate foreground, three individuals are seated with their backs to the viewer on broad, grey stone steps. The leftmost person, with hair gathered in a bun, wears a dark jacket and uses a mobile phone. A green water bottle and an orange beverage bottle are on the step next to them. The middle person has dark hair and is also looking at a phone. The rightmost person has braided dark hair, wears a black tank top, and is using a phone. On the main plaza level of the steps, a male street performer, wearing a light shirt and dark trousers, stands playing an acoustic guitar. A small black amplifier and an open guitar case, displaying a QR code, are positioned on the steps beside him. To his left, a person clad in black full-body attire is seated on the steps. Further to the right of the performer, a woman in a white t-shirt holds a bottle. Near her, a group includes a person wearing a grey hooded top and headscarf, looking down at a child in a yellow t-shirt seated on a yellow skateboard. A man in a black t-shirt and dark shorts walks from right to left across this level. Numerous other pedestrians are present on these steps, walking or standing. The mid-ground features the terraced Jardin du Mont des Arts, characterized by manicured hedges and patterned flowerbeds, sloping downwards. Pathways within the gardens are populated by various individuals walking or standing. On the left side of the scene, a tall, multi-story building with a vertically ribbed facade is visible. On the right, a classical-style building with columns is present. In the distant background, the prominent Gothic spire of the Brussels Town Hall (Hôtel de Ville) rises above the city skyline, with a construction crane visible behind it. The scene depicts a public urban space with moderate pedestrian activity on a clear day.
