A figure in a robe holds a lantern before an old, columned building amid a gloomy, tree-lined alley with an approaching storm overhead.
The image depicts a surreal and mysterious scene set in a narrow alleyway between two tall brick walls. At the end of the alley, there's a building with a staircase leading up to a door. The building has a classical architectural style with a pediment and a window. The sky above is overcast with dark clouds, and there are barren trees on either side of the alley. A solitary figure, draped in a long robe and holding a lantern, stands in the foreground, facing the building. The overall mood of the image is eerie and contemplative.
