The scene depicts a parade in Irsch, Germany, under an overcast sky. In the foreground, a man with a grey flat cap, dark jacket, brown lederhosen, and red socks drives a green tractor pulling a float. He looks towards the right. A red heart-shaped balloon is attached to the tractor's rear right fender. The float, designed as a red and brown ship with "Schiff" written on its side and an anchor decoration, features three masts with furled white sails. Two men in red and white festive costumes and jester hats are visible on the float; one waves to the left, while the other is partially obscured. A colorful mannequin figure, resembling a jester or clown, stands at the front of the float, seemingly holding a ship's wheel. On the left, spectators line the street, facing the float. A person in the immediate foreground wears a black fedora and black suit jacket, while others display various hats, including an orange one. Many hands are raised in interaction with the float's occupants. Buildings with dark roofs and hills covered with trees are visible in the background. A streetlamp extends from the upper left.
