This is a painting, culturally situated in Ado, Nigeria, depicting two women of African descent standing in profile against a textured golden-yellow background. The woman on the left faces right, and the woman on the right faces left, their bodies angled towards each other. Both women have dark skin, full dark curly hair, and wear cowrie shell necklaces. White ritualistic markings adorn their foreheads, noses, and chins. Each woman has a green leafy sprig in her hair; the sprig on the right woman also contains small yellow flowers. The left woman wears an orange wrap-skirt patterned with dark blue rearing horses. The right woman wears a dark red wrap-skirt patterned with orange and black stars and a cowrie shell bracelet on her right wrist. Their chests are bare. Their hands are clasped together at the center, jointly cradling a small green plant with prominent leaves. Both women exhibit serene expressions with their eyes closed or cast downwards. The golden background has subtle texture and faint linear patterns.
