A young male is depicted standing in a dry, tilled agricultural field under a clear, pale blue sky in Mandisar, Afghanistan. The subject, an adolescent boy with short, curly brown hair, wears a light-colored, possibly embroidered cap. He is dressed in a dark garment with a white, intricate pattern across the chest and upper arms, and a solid dark lower section. A black shawl with a grid pattern of thin, light-colored lines is draped over his shoulders. His gaze is directed downwards, and his right hand is raised to his face, partially obscuring his nose and mouth, suggesting a shy expression or suppressed smile. He holds a thick, weathered, light-brown wooden stick or tool handle vertically with both hands, his forearms resting upon it. The immediate and midground consists of dry, light-brown, uneven earth with visible furrows and sparse, dry plant matter. In the distant background, under a hazy sky, faint mountains, scattered structures, and a few bare trees are visible on the horizon. The scene is illuminated by bright, direct sunlight.
