Three wooden armchairs with brown cushions sit along a low white and maroon wall, beside large potted banana-type and broad-leaf plants. Through the left side, a small figure in orange robes walks near a red-walled building, and a person in white stands nearby. Overhead a rusted metal frame with a hanging circular hoop and a green-tinted canopy. Overcast light fills the scene.
