The scene depicts the interior of a banana market stall or storage facility in Ambakirano, Madagascar. Numerous clusters of ripe yellow bananas, many exhibiting dark spots, hang from the ceiling or overhead wooden beams by blue ropes or strings. Several additional bunches of yellow bananas are visible on the right, also suspended by blue cords against a grey wall. On the left, more yellow bananas are suspended near a wooden and glass window frame. The floor is a light grey concrete or similar hard surface, appearing somewhat damp or stained. On the floor and low shelves, large quantities of green, unripe bananas are stacked directly or within wooden crates. Several open wooden crates are distributed across the foreground and mid-ground, containing both ripe and overripe yellow bananas, some within cardboard boxes. In the background, on a higher wooden shelf, two large, light-colored sacks are visible, partially obscured by hanging bananas. The structural elements of the space consist of aged wooden beams and vertical supports. No individuals are present within the frame.
