This nighttime image captures a pedestrian street in Strasbourg, France, with the prominent spire of the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg visible in the distant background. The scene is illuminated by streetlights and extensive Christmas decorations. In the immediate foreground on the right, a black round café table with a single white chair is partially visible. Adjacent to it, a large storefront window reflects the opposite side of the street and some of the overhead lighting. The exterior of this shop is heavily adorned with evergreen boughs, golden bells, red ribbons, and candy canes, featuring a sign with "MANUFACTURE DE LA..." visible amidst the decor. The cobblestone street recedes into the distance, lined on both sides by multi-story European-style buildings with illuminated windows. Approximately 10-15 pedestrians are visible, mostly walking away from the viewer. They are dressed in winter attire, and their elongated shadows are cast on the cobblestones by the ambient light. Overhead, multiple strings of small white lights and larger spherical illuminated globes are suspended across the street, creating a festive canopy. A cluster of brighter, possibly star-shaped, lights is visible further down the street on the left. The distant background is dominated by the silhouetted Gothic spire of the Strasbourg Cathedral against a dark night sky. The overall impression is a bustling, decorated street during the holiday season.
