An outdoor scene in an open, grassy area of Namisha, Democratic Republic of the Congo, depicts a gathering of individuals around a freshly excavated site under a clear to partly cloudy blue sky. In the foreground, positioned with his back partially to the camera, an adult male wearing a blue jacket has his right arm raised with an open hand, addressing a group. Adjacent to him, a substantial mound of reddish-brown earth indicates recent digging, with two long-handled tools, likely spades or hoes, propped within or near the earth pile. To the right of the central figure, a group of approximately 15 to 20 adults, comprising men and women, stands clustered on slightly elevated ground, observing the scene. Many women are dressed in brightly colored, patterned traditional attire, including headwraps. Men are visible among them, one in a dark suit and another in a light grey jacket holding a red bowl-like object. The surrounding environment consists of tall green grasses and various trees and bushes in the midground and background.
