The image depicts an outdoor scene at the Orla da Barra in Salvador, Brazil, likely during sunrise or sunset, with the Forte de Santa Maria visible in the distant background. In the immediate foreground, a red fabric mat lies on a light grey paved sidewalk, displaying an assortment of jewelry and craft items for sale. These items include numerous necklaces, bracelets, rings (some in a black tray), pendants, and various decorative woven objects, including a bag with a sunflower design. A black backpack, a white plastic bucket, and several small rocks are also present on or near the mat. Slightly further back on the sidewalk, a white A-frame sign stands upright. To the left of this sign, a shirtless male, facing partially left, is standing near a green plastic bag. To the right and behind the A-frame, an individual is seated on the ground or a low stool, attending to another display of merchandise laid out on a red fabric mat. Several other similar vendor stalls with red mats and green umbrellas extend along the sidewalk into the midground. On the left side of the frame, a low white concrete wall separates the promenade from a visible expanse of water, presumably the Atlantic Ocean. Tall palm trees, some silhouetted, line this coastal edge. Several pedestrians are walking along the promenade, including a woman in a long blue and green patterned skirt and another in a pink dress. In the far distance on the left, the distinctive light-colored structure of the Forte de Santa Maria, with its fort-like walls and a conical roof, is visible against a bright, partly cloudy sky. On the right side, a tall, multi-story, light-colored building with a modern architectural style and numerous windows occupies a significant portion of the frame. A "COPYART" sign featuring an image of Jesus Christ is visible on a lower section of this building or an adjacent structure. A cobblestone street runs parallel to the sidewalk, with a dark-colored car moving away from the camera and other parked vehicles visible further down. Additional pedestrians are present on the street and sidewalk in the background, including one individual on the far right carrying a large bag. The overall environment is a lively urban-coastal area with commercial activity.
