A group of approximately fifteen individuals are engaged in a cultural performance on a dirt and gravel surface with faint white markings, located in the city of José Luis Bustamante y Rivero, Peru. The central foreground figure, a female, is barefoot, smiling, and wears a white long-sleeved blouse, a red and white patterned shawl, a black embroidered skirt with red trim, and an ornate red headpiece. She holds her arms extended outwards and slightly upwards. Other dancers are similarly dressed in traditional Peruvian attire, featuring colorful embroidered skirts, blouses, vests, and elaborate headwear with flowers or pom-poms. Many dancers hold bundles of dried, light-colored plant stalks upright in their hands, while others have similar stalks attached to their lower legs or waist. They are in various stages of movement, indicative of a synchronized dance. In the mid-ground, a dense crowd of spectators is visible. The background consists of a mix of residential buildings, some appearing unfinished, alongside market stalls with tarpaulin roofs and awnings. A white cross is affixed to a building in the mid-left background. A large dark mesh canopy partially covers the overhead area. The lighting suggests daytime conditions.
