A bronze sculpture depicting an adult dolphin and a smaller, juvenile dolphin surfacing from water is positioned on a paved promenade in Novorossiysk, Russia. The sculpture exhibits a weathered patina, with dark blue-green hues on the main body and coppery-brown tones on features like the snouts and fins, reflecting artificial light. Behind the sculpture, a low barrier of light-colored, angular rocks separates the promenade from a dark body of water. The water surface reflects numerous blurred points of artificial light. In the background, across the bay, a distant cityscape glows with a multitude of bright white and yellow lights, indicating buildings and infrastructure. Dark landmasses, possibly hills or mountains, are vaguely silhouetted above the city lights against a dark, cloudy, or hazy night sky. The paved foreground is dark and textured, showing faint light reflections and surface irregularities. The scene is illuminated by ambient artificial light, and no individuals are present.
