An adult male and a young child, both adorned with white, red, and black facial paint, are posed indoors in Sabon Tasha, Nigeria. The adult male, standing behind the child, wears a dark sleeveless tunic, black trousers, a cowrie shell necklace, and multiple beaded bracelets. He holds a dark tasseled object in his left hand and a long bamboo-like stick in his right hand, extending to hold a shorter bamboo stick further down. The child, positioned in front, wears a dark sleeveless tunic with white stitching, light blue denim shorts, and colorful beaded bracelets. The child grips the long bamboo stick with both hands, looking upward with eyes partially closed. The background features a large translucent orange curtain with floral patterns on the left, and a cream-colored wall with a decorative textured pattern and a visible electrical outlet on the right. A white architectural column is partially visible in the upper right. The floor is dark-tiled.
