An outdoor scene in Yambol, Bulgaria, depicts two individuals, likely participants in a Kukeri festival, on a light grey paved surface under direct sunlight. The foreground features a young male, appearing to be a teenager or young adult, with short, dark hair and a neutral expression, looking directly at the viewer. His right cheek is painted with the Bulgarian flag (white, green, red horizontal stripes). He is wearing a thick, shaggy, dark brown fur-like costume or coat, with a brown leather strap and a rectangular metal buckle visible across his chest. His right hand rests upon the fur garment. Behind and to the right of the foreground subject, another individual is partially visible, dressed in a traditional Kuker costume. This costume includes a prominent skull-like mask, predominantly white with red markings around the eye sockets and a red inverted 'M' or 'W' symbol on the forehead, framed by dark fur and featuring visible horns or tusks. This individual wears brown trousers, white knitted socks, dark shoes, and a belt adorned with numerous large, brass-colored conical bells strapped around their waist. Elements of an additional fur-clad figure are partially visible further to the right of the frame. Long, distinct shadows are cast on the paved ground.
