A full-body, front-facing shot depicts a traditional Nigerian masquerade figure in the city of Alagba, Nigeria. The figure is positioned outdoors, with a weathered yellow wall serving as the backdrop. To the left of the figure, a torn poster featuring a diagram of hands being washed and the text "WASH YOUR H FOR 20 SEC Virus Precau" is visible on the wall. Above the wall, lush green foliage and a pale pink building with a blue roof can be seen. The masquerade figure itself is elaborately adorned. It wears a white mask with distinct black markings around the eyes and eyebrows, red lips, and faint facial tattoos. The mask is topped with a black headdress featuring circular embellishments on either side and a smaller human-like face in the center. A red fabric with a black pattern, possibly of repeated "3"s and "U"s, drapes over the figure's shoulders. A bright red scarf is tied around the neck. The lower part of the figure is obscured by a dense covering of straw or raffia. Two prominent sleeves, knitted in a thick, striped pattern of red, orange, black, gray, and yellow, extend from beneath the straw. The overall impression is one of cultural significance and detailed craftsmanship.
