Description: Portrait of a young man from Niaro. He is sitting on the edge of an angareb smoking a cigarette and drinking Marisa, a traditional, locally produced beer. On the right side of the angareb is a portable radio. Besides a digital watch and the European clothes that the Nuba usually get from international aid supplies, he wears his traditional utensils, for example, the knife on his upper left arm and a bracelet with talismans on his upper right arm. His head is covered by a plastic hat he borrowed from his wife. It is impossible for a Nuba to be photographed without headgear.
