An exterior, eye-level photograph depicts the facade of the Landesmuseum (Swiss National Museum) in Zurich, Switzerland, under a clear blue sky with strong sunlight. The building is constructed from light-colored, rough-hewn stone blocks, featuring a central upper turret with a dark conical roof and a small flagpole topped with a white pennant. Above the main entrance, the word "Landesmuseum" is spelled out in large, gold-colored dimensional letters. The ground-level entrance consists of a wide, multi-tiered concrete staircase leading up to three prominent arched doorways. The central and right arches contain modern glass double doors with dark brown frames, reflecting the surroundings. A partially obscured human figure, wearing dark clothing and a pink or red element, is faintly visible through the reflective glass of the central-right door, appearing to be inside or just behind the entrance. Simple, dark-colored metal handrails flank the central section of the steps. To the right of the steps, an A-frame chalkboard sign with a wooden frame and small wheels is positioned on the ground. Visible text on the sign includes "SPITZ," "Herzlich willkommen" (Welcome), and "Eingang —" (Entrance —). Portions of the building's upper levels, including rectangular windows with stone surrounds and a decorative gutter system, are visible on the right. Strong sunlight illuminates the front of the building and steps, casting distinct shadows on the left side of the facade and within the recessed entrance arches.
