In Narayi, Nigeria, a medium-shot portrait captures an adult male facing forward

In Narayi, Nigeria, a medium-shot portrait captures an adult male facing forward. His face is uniformly covered in white paint or powder, and he wears a dark fedora with a brown band. A long necklace composed of coral-colored, cylindrical beads is worn around his bare chest. Multiple beaded bracelets, featuring black, white, and yellow beads, are visible on his left wrist. He holds a bundle of thin, dark sticks in his left hand, extended towards his face. One of these sticks, positioned directly in front of his right eye, is actively burning, emitting an orange flame and smoke. The background consists of a reddish-brown brick wall, a corrugated metal roof supported by dark wooden beams, and a partial view of a dark chair with a patterned backrest in the lower-left quadrant.
