The image depicts an outdoor cultural event or performance in the city of Jos, Nigeria. The central subject is a person clad in a distinctive full-body costume. The costume consists of a knitted garment with alternating horizontal maroon (or dark red) and white stripes, covering the head and torso. The headpiece features a short, bristly fringe of light-colored natural fibers at the crown. The lower body is concealed by a voluminous skirt made of light-colored, dried straw or fibers. The figure holds a circular, flat fan with a concentric design featuring black, green, and yellow rings, and red and white tassels are visible hanging from the left sleeve. In the mid-ground, a stone wall serves as a backdrop. Seated on the left side of this wall are several individuals, including both adults and children, observing the scene. Many of these figures are partially silhouetted. To the right of the central figure, a man wearing a light-colored striped shirt, dark trousers, and brown shoes stands, holding a white smartphone horizontally, seemingly recording or photographing the event. Adjacent to him, a younger individual wearing a yellow cycling helmet, a light blue t-shirt, and blue and black shorts is seated on a red bicycle, also holding a smartphone. Other bicycles with dark frames are visible in the background, positioned against the stone wall. The ground consists of dry, light-brown earth, with scattered light-colored natural fibers visible near the feet of the performers and observers. In the distant background, partially obscured by shadows, a large tree trunk stands, and a multi-story building with visible windows is present. The scene is illuminated by strong daylight, casting distinct shadows.
