The wagon is hauling reddish-brown wooden coffins of mahogany, intricately carved by hand in Ghana. Accompanying the wagon on both sides, are eight individuals wearing all white with one hand each on the wagon. Four on each side. Additional individuals stand at the photo's edges, peering at the wagon.
