The image depicts a formal garden, the Sabatini Gardens (Jardines de Sabatini), located in the city of Madrid, Spain, with the Royal Palace of Madrid visible in the background. The scene is captured under an overcast sky. In the immediate foreground, two weathered gray stone statues, depicting reclining figures, are positioned on either side of a set of wide stone steps that descend into the garden. To the left of the steps, an area of dense, dark green foliage and ivy-covered ground is visible. The middle ground is dominated by a meticulously maintained formal garden composed of intricate patterns of low, manicured green hedges. These hedges define rectangular and square plots of vibrant green lawn, intersected by narrow, light brown dirt paths. A prominent tree with a thick, dark trunk and branches extends from the lower left, arching towards the center of the frame. Another tree with a lighter, multi-branched trunk is situated on the right side of the garden. In the background, the grand facade of the Royal Palace of Madrid rises. It is a multi-story building constructed of light-colored stone, featuring numerous rectangular windows with white frames arranged symmetrically across its length. The palace exhibits classical architectural details, including balustrades along the roofline and decorative relief sculptures on its upper sections. Behind the palace, a taller building with a reddish-orange exterior is partially visible, set against the gray sky. No individuals are present in the depicted scene.
