A man is playing a traditional Bulgarian instrument called a Gadulka while seated on a black stool in a public space. He is wearing a white shirt, blue jeans, a red and black vest, and a grey flat cap. He also has glasses and a beard. He is using a bow to play the Gadulka, which is a pear-shaped instrument with multiple strings. To his left is a small, folding table on which sits a dark-colored bag and what appears to be a coin purse. Behind him are two posters on the wall; one advertises a book and the other, a beverage. The floor is tiled, and a ventilation unit is visible in the upper right corner of the frame.
