The image depicts an outdoor gathering at a grave site in Balolwa, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The environment consists of dry, uncultivated, hilly terrain with sparse vegetation under a clear sky. Approximately 20 to 30 individuals are present, gathered around an open rectangular grave pit excavated in reddish-brown earth. In the foreground left, a male subject wearing a red and black plaid shirt and dark trousers is seen descending into the grave area. Adjacent to the grave, a white coffin with a green leaf pattern is resting on the ground. In the foreground right, another male subject, seen from behind, wears a maroon shirt and dark green trousers, standing with his hands on his hips. In the midground, a male subject in a light-colored jacket holds a simple wooden cross upright. The remaining individuals, primarily women in brightly colored patterned dresses and head coverings, and men in various attire, are positioned around the grave, observing the coffin and the grave site.
