The scene is set outdoors on reddish-brown dirt ground with scattered small pebbles and organic debris in Adankolo, Nigeria. A young, dark-skinned child stands centrally, looking towards the viewer with a neutral expression. The child's hair is styled in short braids, culminating in a prominent central top knot. Small silver-colored hoop earrings and a beaded necklace with a dark circular pendant are worn. The child wears a light-colored sleeveless top with lime green trim and a patterned skirt, and is barefoot. In the child's right hand, a piece of yellowish-orange food is held. To the immediate left, a portion of another individual is visible: a dark-skinned arm and hand, alongside a foot wearing a light-colored, spotted slip-on sandal. The individual on the left appears to be seated or squatting. In the lower right foreground, a third individual's dark-skinned hand is outstretched towards the child, with a light-colored band visible on the wrist.
