Description:
A probably covert image of a man standing in a homestead looking beyond the frame to the left.
Evans-Pritchard's Rolleiflex camera angle seems to be fairly low to the ground, possibly indicating that he was seated in a similar way to other youths visible beyond.
The man is probably a resident of Nyueny village in western Nuerland where Evans-Pritchard spent 5 weeks in 1936.
