Description: Portrait of a little girl who, like a mother, is holding her little brother in her arms. She looks a little uncertainly into the camera, as she has probably not encountered a photographing European too often. The little boy, on the other hand, looks very calmly, almost even dignified into the camera. The Nuba love jewellery and wear necklaces and bracelets every day since their early childhood.
