This image captures an active outdoor market scene in Akwanga, Nigeria. In the foreground, a prominent display of goods includes numerous plastic bottles filled with liquids of varying colors (red, orange, yellow, clear) arranged on a light-colored mat or fabric, alongside a silver bowl containing grain. A black plastic basin, positioned on the right, contains a large quantity of fresh green leafy vegetables. The midground is dominated by an adult female, centrally located, seated on the ground. She wears a white headscarf and a green patterned dress. Her hands are engaged with a small red plastic bottle, which she appears to be squeezing or manipulating. An earring is visible in her left ear. To her immediate right, a wooden table supports a large black basin filled to capacity with a light-colored granular substance, likely rice. Slightly to the left and behind her, another adult female, wearing a blue top and a brown wrapper, is bent over, her back to the viewer, attending to items on the ground. The background consists of a rudimentary building with a corrugated metal roof and rough-textured walls, possibly mud brick or concrete. Multiple individuals are visible in the background, some standing and some seated, engaged in various market activities. Additional sacks and bowls containing market produce are scattered throughout the scene, indicating a busy commercial environment.
