An adult female stands in an outdoor food preparation or vending area in Narayi, Nigeria. She is positioned slightly left of center, looking towards the viewer with a slight smile. She wears a white patterned headscarf, a light-colored patterned top, a dark purple long-sleeved jacket, dark leggings, and pink flip-flops. A green and black patterned wrapper is tied around her waist. Her left hand holds a yellow utensil. To her right, a large black pot rests on the ground, with visible ash and embers beneath it, indicating an active fire. The pot contains items covered by clear plastic, and a silver circular tray holding approximately ten small cylindrical metal cans is balanced on its rim. A smaller lidded metal pot is nearby on the ground. To the left, a light-colored concrete or stone block with a central circular hole rests on the dirt ground. Behind the woman, to her left, a light-brown stucco or mud-brick wall is visible. A dark metal security gate covers an opening in the background, behind which red plastic crates, plastic containers (some clear, some opaque), and various other items are stacked on a wooden structure. A wooden bench to the left of the woman holds a silver metal bowl and a dark pot. The ground is unpaved dirt with scattered ash and leaves.
