The image depicts a daytime outdoor scene in Mechouar Fes Jdid, Morocco, facing the grand gates of the Royal Palace (Dar al-Makhzen). The foreground features a light-colored paved sidewalk with a geometric tile pattern, extending from the lower left to the center-right. Shadows are cast across the sidewalk, indicating sunlight from the left. On the far left, a tall green metal fence separates the sidewalk from an adjacent area with trees. On the right, a dark grey ornamental street light post with three upward-facing lanterns stands prominently, alongside a secondary pole bearing a white decorative fixture shaped like a crescent moon and stars. In the midground, a wide, open plaza or street area is visible, partially sectioned off by low black metal barriers. Several individuals are present: three people are grouped near the green fence on the left, one wearing a red jacket and another a dark jacket with blue jeans. Further into the plaza, a lone figure in a dark jacket walks towards the palace gates, passing a circular fountain structure. Another figure is partially visible near the fountain. A red circular 'Do Not Enter' sign is positioned near the fence line. A large deciduous tree with bare branches dominates the left midground, accompanied by several palm trees and green shrubbery. The background is dominated by the ornate, light-colored architectural facade of the Royal Palace gates, characterized by multiple arches, intricate decorative elements, and distinct green-tiled rooftops. Two red Moroccan flags, each bearing a green pentagram, are displayed on the rooftops. A range of green-covered mountains rises in the far background, beneath a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds.
