An outdoor scene in the city of Ngalula, Democratic Republic of the Congo, depicts a group of approximately eighteen individuals, predominantly young children, gathered on a reddish-brown dirt ground under bright daylight. In the left foreground, an adult male, wearing a beige vest over a red t-shirt and dark pants, holds an orange object connected to a string extending towards the ground, indicative of a jump rope or similar play item. He faces right, observing the children. To his left, a child in a white dress stands with arms raised. Scattered across the mid-ground, numerous children of varying ages are engaged in different activities. One young girl in a patterned pink and beige dress stands barefoot. Several other children are seated on the ground, including one in a light pink dress. Towards the right, a child in a light-colored top and skirt crouches over a small, pale yellow ball on the ground. Beside this child, a very young child stands partially nude, wearing only a patterned blue and white top. Other children stand observing or playing in groups. In the left background, an adult wearing a tan t-shirt and blue cap, along with another child in a green shirt, are visible. The background features several rudimentary, single-story structures constructed from reddish-brown bricks or mud, typical of residential dwellings, with some distant foliage. Shadows are cast on the ground, indicating direct sunlight.
