This image depicts the Sphinxes on the University Embankment in Saint Petersburg, Russia, at dusk. A large granite sphinx statue dominates the left side of the frame, with hieroglyphs carved into its base. In the foreground, three individuals are visible. A young girl in a black jacket and red pants with white stripes on the side is touching a small winged creature sculpture at the base of the sphinx. To her right, a woman in a black jacket and dark blue skirt stands facing the water. Further to the right, another person in a black jacket and blue jeans is bending down, looking at something in their hands. The Neva River is in the background, with a building complex on the opposite bank, topped by a golden dome, likely the Admiralty Building. A blue banner with Russian text is visible on the building. The sky is overcast with dramatic clouds. The overall atmosphere suggests a cool evening in the city.
