But it's not good for our approach: Let's better hurry at the ball, Where in the lightning-quick stage-couch, Onegin's driven to his toil. Before the buildings, dark and low, Along the sleeping street, in rows, Lanterns of carriages and carts Emerge their gay and promised lights And lighten rainbows on the snow; All set in candles, tall and bright, The splendid house wakes the night; Along paned windows, shades go, Flash profiles of the people heads - Of dames and fashionable lads.
An eye-level medium shot captures a wintry nighttime street scene filled with people dressed in late 19th-century garments in front of a grand building adorned with glowing window displays and ornate streetlamps. A man in the foreground stands with his back to the camera, wearing a long black winter coat and top hat while holding a cane. Other people walk down the street alongside him, all facing forward. On the right, a large building with giant glass windows displays various men and women in garments from the period. A row of candles lines the windows. On the left side of the street, horses pull two-seated carriages down the wet, snow-covered road. Warm yellow light emanates from the windows, streetlamps, and inside the carriages, contrasting with the dark gray and blue tones of the nighttime sky and the snow covering the tops of the buildings in the background.
