A large crowd is gathered outdoors in a paved urban square in Paris, France, identified as the Place Georges Pompidou due to the distinctive tall, dark, rectangular ventilation shafts (known as "Cheminées") associated with the Centre Pompidou visible in the mid-ground, and the Tour Saint-Jacques spire visible in the background right. The central figure, a person dressed in a vibrant, multi-colored abstract-patterned full-body suit, stands with their back to the viewer, actively creating large iridescent bubbles using a two-stick and string apparatus. A blue bucket containing bubble solution rests on the wet, dark grey paved ground directly in front of them. The ground is partially covered with puddles and foamy residue from the bubble-making activity. Numerous large, spherical bubbles, reflecting various colors, float throughout the scene, with some closer to the ground and others ascending into the partly cloudy sky. The sky features a mix of blue patches and widespread, horizontal stratocumulus clouds. Surrounding the bubble maker is an engaged audience of adults and children. On the left, a man in a white hooded sweatshirt observes, and a black baby stroller is visible. Closer to the performer, a young child in a dark red dress stands, looking up at the bubbles. On the right side of the image, a man carries a child on his shoulders, both observing the scene. Other adults and children are scattered throughout the background, some looking towards the bubbles, others interacting. In the background, bare trees line the square, and traditional Haussmannian-style Parisian buildings with dormer windows and rooftops are visible, one featuring scaffolding. The Tour Saint-Jacques, a Gothic tower with a spire, stands prominently on the far right horizon. Two tall, dark, rectangular structures, part of the Centre Pompidou complex, are situated behind the crowd and to the left of the Tour Saint-Jacques. Cardboard boxes are stacked on the paved surface on the right side of the frame.
