The image displays an indoor historical exhibit located in Badagry, Nigeria. A clear glass display case occupies the central foreground, containing an open, aged book. The book's yellowish pages are open to two full spreads, revealing multiple columns of text in a non-Latin script, consistent with the Yoruba language, interspersed with numbered verses. Above the open book, a rectangular white paper sign is affixed to the inside of the display case's front panel, stating: "THE FIRST YORUBA BIBLE TRANSLATED BY RT. REV. S.A. CROWTHER IN 1845 Was Printed In Great Britain By Lowe & Brydone (printer) Ltd. London." A small, light brown, rectangular object, possibly a latch or hinge, is present on the top edge of the glass case. The background consists of a uniformly painted light green wall, upon which a black-framed plaque with white text is partially visible in the upper left. The visible text on the plaque references missionaries encouraging agriculture and expanding minds through "the arts of civilized nations." No people are visible in the scene.
