In a courtyard in Kandahar, Afghanistan, a group of men are seated on a red rug. The men are dressed in traditional Afghan clothing, including turbans, shalwar kameez, and vests. Some of the men are wearing keffiyehs. They are seated in a semi-circle, facing each other, and appear to be engaged in conversation. In the foreground, a man wearing a black shalwar kameez and a striped keffiyeh is visible. He has a beard and is looking to his right. To his left, a man in a white shalwar kameez and a white turban is seated, with his hands clasped in his lap. There are plates of food and glasses of water on the rug. The background shows a brick wall with arched windows. The scene appears to be a gathering or meeting.
