A Danish Royal Life Guard stands on a cobblestone pavement in front of Amalienborg Palace in Copenhagen, Denmark. The male guard is positioned centrally, facing forward with a slight leftward orientation, holding a black rifle vertically with its butt on the ground at his right side. He wears a ceremonial uniform consisting of a tall black bearskin shako, a dark blue tunic with brass buttons and a white cross belt, white gloves, light blue trousers with a white vertical stripe down the outer seam, and black shoes. To the guard's right, a red sentry box stands against the building facade. The sentry box has a conical red roof adorned with a golden royal monogram, specifically 'FX' for Frederik X, and is topped with a white finial. Inside the sentry box, a dark blue uniform or garment is partially visible. The background consists of a light-colored, multi-story stone building with a rusticated facade and several large, white-framed windows with multiple panes. A fluted stone column is partially visible on the far left of the frame. The ground is paved with grey and dark-toned cobblestones.
