The image depicts a street market scene in Onitsha, Nigeria. In the foreground, a woman, viewed from behind, wears a vibrant floral dress and a patterned head wrap. She stands next to a roadside stall composed of two wooden tables. One table holds a display of green plantains and numerous light-colored tubers, covered partially by a white cloth. Adjacent to this, a second wooden table supports a metal tray containing a pile of green and yellow papayas, alongside several small, clear plastic bags of unidentifiable contents. A small wooden stool is positioned on the ground next to these tables. Two large, empty woven baskets rest on the dirt ground near the woman's left foot, with a few tubers visible in one. The ground in the immediate foreground is reddish-brown dirt, strewn with various pieces of litter including plastic and paper. In the mid-ground, to the right of the woman's stall, two young boys are seated on a low structure or bench behind a small wooden table with a board game on its surface. The boy on the left wears a blue shirt, and the boy on the right wears a white shirt; both are smiling and looking towards the right side of the frame. A concrete curb or drainage channel separates the market area from a slightly elevated dirt path behind the boys. The background features a row of multi-story, weathered buildings and additional market stalls or shops. These structures have varied facades, including corrugated metal roofs, barred windows, and metal grates or doors. Items, possibly merchandise, are visible hanging from one of the background stalls. The overall environment suggests an active urban commercial area under natural daylight.
