Composition in ochre, gray, blue, earthy, green, black and orange. Predominant thick smooth texture in the hand of guitarist. Group of four women, a child and a man playing guitar, against geometrized background. Man is slightly on the right of center, sitting down seat, front, playing guitar. Have poorly defined facial features, hands raised and dress shirt with half sleeve, long pants and overly pointy shoe. Leaning on his on the left leg, standing in profile to the left, a child with arms raised towards him, bristling hair. This child wears blouse with stripes in orange and kind of skirt dragging on the floor like a tail. To the left, across the guitarist, a woman as if she were dancing and playing maraca. Has black hair with a curl falling over her on the left shoulder, facial features poorly defined, wears geometrized dress with on the left sleeved, getting naked on the right arm and high heels and pointy. In the background, behind the musician, three female figures. From the left to the right: a tall woman, with his face to the right, hands above each other, at waist height, as if drumming; Girl head shown in green, with eyes protruding black; and another woman's head, with only suggested facial features, and a fallen braid on the left shoulder, finished off with a ribbon bow. All extras, except the girl, have represented skin tone ground. The background gives the idea of an open window to the right, with moon representation in the upper on the right corner. Ground flat and wide areas in the rest of geometric background.
