As the procession makes its way down a road, there are missionary sisters holding umbrellas up and participants clothed in white dresses and hats holding a banner. Following the procession is a band with various musical instruments. Houses can also be seen in the background. The back of the postcard is blank and contains information about the publisher: Ecole Apostolique de Gentinnes (Brabant) and also contains information about the Catholic mission agency: "Mission francaise des P.P. du St. Esprit" and a caption: "La procession a Dakar. De processie te Dakar" ("The procession to Dakar").
