The image depicts the Sea Gate (Morska Vrata) in the city of Kotor, Montenegro, serving as an entrance to the old town. The primary subject is a large, light-colored stone archway, framed by segmented, lighter-toned stone blocks forming the arch and flanking pilasters. Above the arch, a rectangular stone plaque is carved with "21-XI-1944" beneath a five-pointed star. Higher on the facade, a more ornate, circular stone crest is mounted. Above this, at the roofline of the structure built atop the gate, three flags are displayed on poles: a white flag on the left, a yellow/gold flag with a red emblem (resembling the Montenegrin coat of arms) in the center, and a red flag with a white emblem on the right. Several black birds are perched on the dark roof gutter above the flags. To the left of the archway, a black, ornate street lamp is affixed to the stone wall, beneath which a small, dark red rectangular sign with white text is mounted. A silver-colored bicycle with a front basket and rear rack is parked upright against this wall on the cobblestone pavement. To the right of the archway, a vertical white rectangular informational sign with red and black text is attached to the stone wall by a metal bracket system. A person, dressed in dark clothing, is partially visible seated on the far right edge of the frame. The ground directly in front of the archway is paved with light-colored and reddish-brown rectangular pavers laid in a diagonal herringbone pattern. Further to the right, the pavement transitions to a solid, lighter-colored slab. Through the archway, an adult individual dressed in dark clothing is visible walking away from the viewer, deeper into the passage, appearing as a silhouette against the lighter background of the interior street. The sky above is partially cloudy.
