The image depicts a close-up portrait of an individual in the city of Barakin Akawo, Nigeria. The subject, a person with dark skin, is centered in the frame from approximately the upper chest upwards. Their eyes are dark and look directly forward. Their hair is styled in tightly woven, small braids, bleached blonde or light brown in color, with darker roots visible. Both hands are interlocked over the lower half of the face, specifically covering the nose and mouth. The fingers are extended, revealing manicured nails with a light, iridescent, almond-shaped polish. A gold-toned ring with an open, oval-shaped center is worn on the fourth finger of the subject's right hand. The individual is wearing a garment, possibly a jacket, that is yellow with a horizontal white stripe visible across the upper chest area, and a zipper pull is evident. The background is a solid, textured surface of a muted blue-purple hue, suggesting an indoor or studio setting. The lighting is cool-toned, casting a slight sheen on the skin and hair.
