Through the Arch to the Louvre Pyramid

Photorealistic scene of people walking through a grand ancient stone archway in the foreground, leading the viewer's eye toward the Louvre Pyramid in Paris. It is daytime with bright sunlight illuminating the textured stone and casting long soft shadows. The arch frames the glass-and-metal pyramid rising in the distance, with the Louvre's historic facade and the neatly arranged courtyard visible beyond. A diverse crowd in light jackets and scarves stroll through the arch—some pausing to photograph, others chatting or looking around. The cobblestone plaza is slick from a recent rain, reflecting light and the arches. Pigeons flutter overhead. The shot uses a low, inside-arch perspective with a wide-angle lens to create a sense of invitation and scale. Natural colors: warm beige limestone, clear blue sky, reflective glass of the pyramid, and muted greens from distant trees. Cinematic, highly detailed, ultra-photorealistic.
