An adult male stands outdoors in Itobe, Nigeria, holding three large bunches of plantains or cooking bananas. He is positioned centrally, facing the camera with a direct gaze and serious expression. He wears a mauve/plum-colored traditional tunic and matching trousers, with dark open-toed sandals. A small brown leather shoulder bag hangs on his right hip, and a lanyard is visible around his neck. The plantains, held against his torso with both hands, vary in ripeness from green with dark spots to predominantly yellow with dark blemishes. In the background to the left, under a green and yellow striped canopy, several individuals are seated on plastic chairs around a white table. More plantains are on the ground near the table. To the right background, additional people are seated, with one prominent figure in a white robe. A dark fabric structure, possibly another tent, is visible further back. The ground is covered with dry, light brown grass. A small yellow spherical object lies on the ground to the right of the man's feet. The sky is clear, indicating daytime.
