A photograph of a group of people in an outdoor garden setting with green grass and trees behind them. Several men and women in traditional African attire stand close together. On the left a man wears a black embroidered robe with a red and white beaded collar. Next to him an older man wears a white embroidered cap and a tan-and-white patterned robe. Beside them a person wears a leopard-print cloak over a light blue shirt and dark trousers, holding a microphone. A woman in a green, yellow and black patterned dress stands near the centre. On the right a man in a red and brown patterned robe with a red and white beaded headpiece holds a white plate. No one in the scene is confidently identifiable as a person by appearance, so the identity is unsure.
