The image displays a portion of the Florence Cathedral (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore) in Florence, Italy, under an overcast sky. The dominant subject is the cathedral's exterior, featuring the elaborate dome, drum, and apse sections, which are clad in intricate geometric patterns of white, dark green, and reddish-pink marble. The dome itself is covered with reddish-brown terracotta tiles and topped with a golden orb. In the lower mid-ground, a light grey temporary barrier or hoarding, approximately waist-height, extends horizontally across the scene. Two white panels with dark markings are visible on this barrier. The ground is a dark, wet paved surface, suggesting recent rain. A group of four individuals is walking from left to right across the paved area, in front of the barrier. They are dressed in dark, casual winter clothing, including jackets and trousers. Further to the right, a single individual wearing a dark coat stands near a low, dark metal railing, facing the cathedral.
