A photograph of a band of musicians seated on a red-painted tiered staircase lined with potted green plants. Six or seven young men wear saffron-orange robes and play long curved brass horns (ram's-horn style trumpets). Two large drums lie among them on the upper steps, one drum face visible at the top right. A red multi-storey building with metal railings forms the backdrop. Musicians are seated in various poses, some raising their horns and others holding them low. The arrangement suggests a ceremonial or processional musical ensemble.
