This is a photograph of a row of three windows on a brick building. The windows are rectangular and framed by a dark brick wall. Two of the windows reflect the cloudy sky and appear uncovered, while the third window on the right is partially obscured by decorative iron bars. The image has a moody and atmospheric quality, with heavy use of shadow creating contrast between the bright window reflections and the dark building facade.
