The scene depicts a street market in Onitsha, Nigeria, characterized by an unpaved, light-brown dirt road. In the immediate foreground, a male individual is seen from behind, walking from right to left across the frame. He wears a short-sleeved blue t-shirt, patterned trousers with a white base and red, orange, and green designs, and light-brown sandals. A large, rectangular, light-brown tray, laden with multiple packaged items (possibly shoes or small bags), is balanced on his head. A lime-green bag with a floral pattern is slung over his left shoulder, resting at hip level. He holds a crumpled red object in his right hand. The midground features additional market elements and activity. To the left of the main subject, a brown, A-frame market stand displays rows of metallic objects. Behind this stand, refuse, including plastic and paper, is scattered on the ground. Further back, a dark-colored tricycle (Keke Napep) with yellow accents is partially visible. A male figure in an orange t-shirt and dark trousers walks towards this tricycle. To the right of the main subject, under a light-colored canvas tent or umbrella, is another market stall. A person in a purple shirt is partially visible near a second yellow and black tricycle. The background consists of multi-story commercial buildings. Visible signage includes a red and white sign with "GOLDEN EAGLE HOTEL & SUITE" and other text, a blue sign displaying "PENTED" and "OFFICE LLC," and a smaller red sign stating "BIG CYCLE DEALER" and "REFRIGERATION." Corrugated metal structures and smaller stalls are interspersed among the buildings. The overall environment suggests an active urban commercial district with unpaved thoroughfares.
