A statue of Alexander the Great on horseback, rendered in dark bronze, dominates the left side of the frame, set against a clear, bright blue sky. The horse is in mid-leap, its front hooves elevated. The statue stands on a tall, rectangular stone pedestal. To the right of the equestrian statue, three tall, slender spears rise vertically from the ground, each topped with a sharp point. Behind these spears are three large, circular shields, also made of dark bronze, mounted on poles. Further to the right, a row of at least five more spears can be seen, receding into the distance. In the background, a body of water, likely the sea, stretches across the horizon. A city skyline, with buildings and a few ships, is visible on the distant shore. The immediate foreground is paved with rough, speckled asphalt. A wide, raised platform, constructed of white stone with marble accents, occupies the middle ground. Several people are present on this platform. Two women are walking towards the viewer, one in a light-colored outfit and a straw hat, the other in darker clothing. Other individuals are scattered across the platform, some appearing to be tourists, with one person taking a photograph. The overall scene appears to be a public monument or memorial, likely located along a waterfront promenade in the city of Thessaloniki.
