The scene depicts an outdoor market or street area in Doma, Nigeria, dominated by a large quantity of yams. Numerous elongated, irregularly shaped yams, displaying varying shades of brown and tan, are piled in several clusters directly on the dusty, light-brown ground throughout the foreground and midground. To the far left foreground, a section of a reddish-brown plastic basin is visible. Scattered across the dusty ground are miscellaneous items: a crumpled black plastic bag, a white transparent plastic bag, a dried light-brown leaf, and a piece of fabric with a purple, yellow, and black pattern. Footprints are evident in the loose earth. A concrete curb or low wall extends horizontally across the midground, separating the primary yam display area from a higher, dusty ground level beyond. On this elevated ground, several individuals are partially visible. From left to right: the lower legs and feet of a person wearing a long black garment and blue flip-flops, carrying a blue handbag; the lower legs of a person in gray pants and light-colored sandals; and the lower legs of a person wearing a patterned yellow and green garment and brown sandals. To the far right, the lower legs of a person in blue jeans and dark flip-flops are seen positioned on a red and black motorcycle, whose silver front wheel is also visible. A white sack rests behind the yam pile on the right side of the concrete curb. The environment is uniformly dusty, and the scene is illuminated by natural daylight, casting shadows.
