The photograph depicts the ruins of the front wall of a three-storey building - Gęsiówka. The empty windows show the bricks of the destroyed walls, lacking ceilings. In the part of the facade decorated with pilasters, sticking out from the rest of the wall, there is a preserved door wing, closed, with a white plaque. There is a preserved balcony above. The building is crowned by a pediment with a round, empty window opening in the middle, below which are the letters: "SLAO GUSTO". On the left, two lampposts can be seen, one of them taller, ending at the top with a snail-shaped curl. There is some grass at the lower edge of the photograph. The edges of the photographs are straight, with a small white margin running along them.
