An image captures a low-angle view of the Monestir de Sant Cugat del Vallès, located in Sant Cugat del Vallès, Spain, under a clear blue sky with scattered white cirrus clouds. The dominant feature is a tall, square, multi-tiered stone bell tower, constructed from light-colored, cut stone blocks. The tower exhibits multiple levels of arched openings, some containing bells, and is topped with a small cross. Below the belfry, several gargoyle-like features protrude. Adjacent and partially behind the main tower, sections of the abbey's main structure are visible, featuring more stone masonry, arched windows, and a smaller spired turret with ornate Gothic-style elements. A circular window is discernible on a lower section of the abbey wall. In the upper center of the sky, a single dark-colored bird with outstretched wings is in flight, oriented horizontally. The foreground and sides of the image are framed by the bare, leafless branches of several deciduous trees, suggesting a winter or early spring season. At ground level, partially obscured by tree trunks, a dark ornamental lamppost stands near a light-colored park bench. The base of the abbey walls is visible, constructed from older, more irregular stone blocks, with some areas of exposed brickwork. The scene is illuminated by bright sunlight, casting subtle shadows on the building. No human figures are present.
