This is a photograph of an individual standing at the rear of a large vehicle in a city street setting. The photograph captures the rear view of a person dressed in a white robe standing in front of the dark, curtain-like covering of a large vehicle. The background shows multi-story buildings with numerous windows and balconies, and another street leading off into the distance. Nearby on the left side of the image, a vintage car is parked, and a person in a dark coat walks away in the background.
