Photograph of a large seated gathering of young men on red-painted stone steps beside a water body at the left edge. Most attendees wear white or light-coloured shirts and white or grey trousers, with some in patterned shirts. Two people stand in the centre of the steps facing the crowd: one in a white shirt and white trousers, the other in white with a yellow sash and what appears to be a small red item in hand. The steps rise in tiers with metal railings along the upper left.
