Photorealistic ancient Babylonian street scene. People walk and trade among mudbrick buildings with blue-glazed tile details.

A photorealistic depiction of daily life in the ancient city of Babylon at its height during the Neo-Babylonian period, around the 6th century BCE. A busy city street with mudbrick buildings, high walls, and processional-style architecture. Colorful glazed brick decorations and relief patterns appear on walls and gates. The street is wide and orderly, with a sense of planned urban space. People go about their everyday activities: merchants trading goods, scribes writing on clay tablets, craftsmen at work, families walking together, and travelers moving through the city. The people wear traditional ancient Mesopotamian clothing such as long robes, shawls, belts, sandals, and layered garments, with neatly groomed beards and hair typical of the period. The scene is warmly lit by sunlight, with earthy tones, blue-glazed brick accents, and a lively but grounded atmosphere focused on ordinary urban life rather than temples, rulers, or ceremonies.
