A close-up portrait of an individual with dark skin is captured in Sabon Tasha, Nigeria

A close-up portrait of an individual with dark skin is captured in Sabon Tasha, Nigeria. The subject's eyes are closed, and a greyish, pasty substance is applied to their face in specific patterns: a vertical line extending from the forehead down the bridge of the nose, horizontal lines across the forehead above each eye, lines extending horizontally from the outer corners of the eyes, and a concentrated patch on the chin. The substance appears textured and partially dried. The subject's full lips are visible, and a small amount of dark facial hair is present on the chin, partly covered by the applied substance. The upper chest and shoulders are visible, indicating bare skin. In the background, to the subject's right, a section of light green wooden material with faint white markings, possibly "0-0051," and a small dark rectangular object are discernible. Below this, a light-colored surface, possibly concrete or ground, is visible. The lighting is ambient, and the image has a slight softness.
