The scene is set in an outdoor, unpaved residential courtyard in Lokoja, Nigeria. In the foreground, a female, viewed from the back, is seated on a low wooden stool. She wears a light blue short-sleeved top, a patterned purple, black, and yellow skirt, and dark slides. Her head is covered by a dark cap or scarf. Positioned directly in front of her are several items: a black charcoal pot containing ashes, an aluminum pot with an orange-red liquid, a small red bowl with food remnants, and an open cardboard box holding multiple small glass jars with green lids. To the immediate left, a wooden pole leans against a cream-colored building wall. A black bucket and some crumpled fabric are at the base of the wall. The ground consists of rough concrete with scattered debris. In the mid-ground, a second female is observed walking away from the viewer, towards an open metal gate in the far background. She wears a dark top, a light-colored patterned skirt, and carries a bag over her right shoulder. The surrounding structures consist of light-colored building walls.
