A male individual is depicted in an outdoor or semi-outdoor pottery workshop in Kandahar, Afghanistan. The subject, viewed from the rear and right side, is kneeling or crouching, actively shaping a large, light-brown, unglazed clay vessel on a pottery wheel. Their hands and forearms are submerged within the upper portion of the vessel, which exhibits distinct horizontal shaping rings and a flared rim. The individual wears a loose-fitting, long-sleeved grey garment heavily stained with dried clay. Dark hair is visible on the subject's head. The pottery wheel consists of a square wooden platform supporting the vessel, mounted on a central spindle. In the foreground, numerous smaller, unglazed clay pots with ribbed bodies and narrow openings are arranged on the dry, dusty ground, presumably in a drying stage. Several round and rectangular wooden boards, some with clay residue, are also present on the ground. A mound of raw clay rests near the potter. The background features a weathered, light-brown brick wall, constructed from horizontal courses of sun-dried or mud bricks, exhibiting some darker discoloration and a small, tall, recessed niche. The scene is brightly illuminated, indicating direct sunlight and casting distinct shadows.
