The image displays an outdoor pottery scene in Unguwar Shanu, Nigeria. A male individual, appearing middle-aged, with dark skin and a short haircut, is seated at a traditional, foot-powered pottery wheel. He wears a red polo shirt with an emblem on the left chest and has both hands coated in clay. He is actively shaping a small, unglazed clay pot with a flared rim, which is centered on the spinning wheel. To the potter's immediate right, a multi-tiered terracotta planter featuring a brick-like pattern is displayed on a raised stand. Partially visible on the ground to the far right are additional unglazed pots, including one with horizontal green and white stripes. The wooden pottery workbench in front of the potter contains a plastic bucket filled with wet clay or slip and a metal spatula. In the background to the left, a large, textured tree trunk (possibly a baobab) stands prominently. A small, unglazed clay pot hangs from a wire attached to this tree trunk. Behind the tree and extending to the right, are traditional mud-built structures with corrugated metal roofs. One structure includes an arched doorway, inside which a second individual, wearing patterned pink or purple clothing, is partially visible and seated. The ground consists of dry, compacted earth. The scene is illuminated by bright, clear natural sunlight.
