The image shows two porcelain plates in a glass display case at the National Museum of Tanzania in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania (latitude: -6.814, longitude: 39.295). The plates are arranged in a row, with the smaller one on the left and the larger one on the right. The smaller plate is circular and features a red and gold floral design, while the larger plate is also circular and features a blue and white floral design. Beneath the plates is a white piece of paper, with a small card beneath the smaller plate and a larger card beneath the larger plate. The text on the smaller card reads, "Bakuli la kichina la karne ya 18, liliochimbuliwa huko Kunduchi, Dar es salaam... 18th Century Chinese bowl excavated at Kunduchi, Dar es Salaam". The text on the larger card reads, "Sahani iliyopatikana kwenye makaburi ya Waislamu huko Kunduchi, Dar es Salaam. Sahani hii ni kati ya bidhaa za mwanzoni mwa karne ya 19 zilizoletwa katika Pwani ya Afrika Mashariki kutoka Uingereza... A plate found at an Islamic cemetery in Kunduchi, Dar es Salaam. Plates of this kind were brought to East Africa by British traders in the early 19th century". The background of the image is a white wall with a black metal frame. The image also contains a photograph of what appears to be a foot, but it is too blurry to make out any details. The image is taken from a slight downward angle, and the lighting is well-balanced.
