The image captures a young Black child, estimated to be between three and five years old, standing indoors in the city of Onitsha, Nigeria. The child wears a short-sleeved red t-shirt with a white trim along the collar and sleeves. The child's head is tilted slightly upwards and to the left from the viewer's perspective, with dark eyes directed towards the upper right, away from the camera's direct line of sight. The mouth is slightly parted. The child has short, dark hair. The scene is dimly lit, with the child's face and upper body receiving direct illumination, casting faint shadows behind. The floor beneath the child is dark and indistinct. To the upper right background, a dark, textured, and patterned surface is partially visible. The child's bare feet are visible at the bottom of the frame, indicating the child is standing on a dark surface. The photographic perspective is high-angle, looking down at the child.
