In the city of Ngalula, Democratic Republic of the Congo, three young children are seated on reddish-brown dirt ground with sparse green grass and dried organic debris. The child on the left wears a light-colored, patterned garment and faces towards the center. The central child, wearing a red long-sleeved top and light shorts, smiles and looks towards the right. This child has multiple gold-colored bracelets on the right wrist. The child on the right, wearing a light-colored t-shirt with a graphic and a patterned skirt, extends their right arm, pointing towards the center of the group, and looks slightly to the right of the frame. This child wears multi-colored bracelets on both wrists. Between the central and right children lies a blonde-haired doll, dressed in a striped top and patterned skirt, positioned on a yellow cloth or garment, with a blue cloth beneath its head. A clear plastic bottle cap is visible near the children's bare feet. A dark, cylindrical object is near the left child's left foot. In the mid-ground, a pathway of dirt leads towards the background. To the left in the background, a structure made of reddish-brown bricks is visible, with stacks of similar bricks nearby. Beyond this, green foliage and trees are present, and further back, white corrugated sheets or similar materials can be seen. The ground in the foreground shows small earthen mounds, indicative of insect activity.
