This black and white, close-up photograph depicts an individual in a low-light environment within a room in Jos, Nigeria. The subject, a person with dark skin, is positioned with their head angled slightly right, filling the majority of the frame. The right side of their face (viewer's left) is predominantly shrouded in deep shadow, while the left side is also heavily shadowed, rendering most facial features indistinct. The person's right eye (viewer's left) is partially visible and directed forward. A portion of the individual's right shoulder and upper arm is visible in the lower right, exhibiting a specular highlight. The background consists of a light-colored, possibly painted, wall or vertical surface, featuring a distinct corner or seam that runs diagonally from the upper center to the middle right. This wall exhibits some surface texture or minor irregularities. The lighting is harsh and directional, originating from the upper right, contributing to the high contrast and deep shadows present in the scene. No specific actions or other objects are clearly discernible.
