This image displays a mural painted on a textured, salmon-pink wall in the city of Itirin, Nigeria. The mural depicts an older Black man with a full grey beard, smiling broadly with an open mouth revealing teeth, and looking directly forward. He is dressed in a flowing, light olive-green agbada-style garment and a matching conical hat. A double-strand necklace of reddish-brown, elongated oval beads hangs around his neck. He also wears reddish-brown bead bracelets on both wrists. The man is positioned as if emerging from or leaning through a dark, recessed opening, possibly a doorway or window, which forms the background of the figure. A dark, short cigar or pipe is held in his mouth. His left hand, adorned with a beaded bracelet, is extended forward towards the viewer, holding several light-colored, irregularly shaped objects. His right hand, also with a beaded bracelet, is partially visible, extended to the right side of the frame. Below the mural, centered on the wall, the Yoruba phrase "Ẹ Káàbò" (meaning "Welcome") is written in large, black, stylized capital letters. The wall itself shows signs of wear, including visible cracks and areas where the paint is chipped or faded, particularly on the salmon-pink background.
