The scene depicts a street in Alasia, Nigeria, under an overcast sky. A two-wheeled handcart, heavily loaded with a large, bulky object wrapped in a green tarpaulin, occupies the mid-ground, positioned near the edge of a paved asphalt road. The cart's frame appears constructed of metal and possibly woven material, supported by two small, dark wheels. In the background, multiple vehicles are visible on the two-lane road. Several yellow passenger vans, characteristic of local transport, are present; one prominent yellow van in the right lane displays a colorful advertisement on its rear panel. Further down the road, other white and dark vehicles can be seen. Along the left side of the road, utility poles with overhead electrical wires are prominent, and behind them, a makeshift structure housing numerous stacked tires and two indistinct figures is discernible. To the far right, a yellow-painted kiosk-like structure with an overhanging roof is situated on a paved shoulder. Adjacent to this kiosk, a vertical stack of five black vehicle tires is present. A concrete drainage ditch, containing dark liquid and accumulated debris, runs parallel to the paved shoulder in the foreground. Scattered white pieces of litter are visible on the paved ground.
