The four people are dressed in traditional clothing; - two men wear orange or red garments, - one woman wears a blue-gray garment and - another woman wears a pink and blue garment. The man on the left and the woman on the right are kneeling; the other two people sit cross-legged. The man on the left gestures toward the man on the right. The woman on the right holds her chin. A short stone pillar stands at the right edge of a white, stepped structure with a flat top. The structure sits on a green lawn behind the people; it is surrounded by a short, red fence. Two trees flank the structure behind the people. The top half of the image contains black text on a background that fades to light brown at the bottom. The text fills the top portion.
