The image captures a rotated vertical street scene in Arequipa, Peru, during daylight hours under a cloudy sky. The central figure is an elderly man, likely a shoeblacker, positioned on the right side of the frame. He is dressed in a white long-sleeved shirt with red accents, dark trousers, and a red cap, with black shoes on. He is hunched over a blue and wooden shoeblacking stand, resting one foot on a small blue plastic stool. His hands are engaged in the act of polishing, though the item being polished is obscured by his posture. In the foreground, a large, weathered grey metal structure, possibly a utility box or newsstand, is covered with various stickers and graffiti. A prominent, colorful poster with a purple background is affixed to this structure. The visible text on the poster reads: "NOS VAMOS, SUBANSE A LA VAN" (We're leaving, get in the van). Below this main phrase, a list of names, likely referring to musical acts or artists, is displayed: "BAIÃO COMENTRE LAZARO BOOTEN SUKIDAS SUPLIKANX MAMBIA DOPAMINA." Another smaller blue and white sticker is visible to the left of the main poster. The background reveals a paved street made of grey tiles or cobblestones. Further back, light-colored buildings with colonial-style architecture, including arched windows and balconies, line the street, characteristic of Arequipa's historic center. A streetlamp is visible against the sky. The overall scene depicts a common street occupation within a historic urban setting.
