The image displays the illuminated facade of the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg, located in Strasbourg, France, at night. The perspective is a low-angle, upward view, emphasizing the Gothic architecture against a dark, clear sky. The prominent single spire, capped with a golden finial, rises at the top of the structure. The main facade is characterized by a large, ornate rose window centrally positioned, surrounded by intricate stone tracery. Below the rose window, multiple elaborately carved pointed arch portals serve as primary entrances, flanked by numerous vertical architectural elements including buttresses, pinnacles, and slender arched windows. Rows of sculpted figures are visible within niches and along horizontal bands of the facade. The entire structure, appearing to be constructed of stone, is illuminated by warm-toned artificial lights, strategically placed to highlight its detailed carvings, textures, and architectural relief. No human subjects or other prominent objects are discernible in the immediate foreground.
