An indoor close-up portrait of an infant being held in Sabon Gari Nassarawa, Nigeria

An indoor close-up portrait of an infant being held in Sabon Gari Nassarawa, Nigeria. The infant, of African descent with a light brown complexion and dark, curly hair, appears to be approximately 2-6 months old. The infant is wearing a long-sleeved grey top with thin red horizontal stripes and a white stitched design featuring circular and rectangular shapes on the chest. A small gold stud earring is present in the infant's left earlobe. The infant's eyes are partially closed or squinted, and the mouth is open with the tongue slightly extended, indicative of a vocalization or a grimace. The infant's left arm is raised with a fisted hand. A dark-skinned adult supports the infant; the adult's thumb rests prominently on the infant's lower chest, and other fingers are visible supporting the infant's head and back. The background is dark and out of focus, suggesting an interior setting with low lighting.
