The scene depicts an outdoor area in the city of Kanwa, Nigeria, under bright daylight. In the foreground, a young child, approximately 4-6 years old, with dark skin and a black headwrap, squats barefoot on a beige concrete ledge against a building. The child wears a light-colored dress with a green floral or abstract pattern, and holds hands clasped together in front of the chest, with lips slightly parted. Dust and dirt are visible on the child's bare feet and lower legs. To the left in the midground, a second child, wearing a yellow shirt and light pants, sits on the dry, light-brown dirt ground beneath a tree, interacting with a light blue bowl and other small items on the ground. A third child, wearing a dark top, is seated further back against a light-colored wall, appearing to observe or manipulate items within a woven basket. The ground consists of dry, sandy earth mixed with scattered small rocks and dark debris. The background features light-colored mud-brick or concrete block structures, with a dark green door partially visible behind the foreground child.
