male shoemaker, likely of African descent given the location of Kwamba, Nigeria, working in his outdoor workshop. He is wearing a vibrantly patterned green and blue shirt. He is focused on repairing a black sandal, holding it with his left hand while his right hand is engaged in sewing with a needle and thread. On the wooden workbench in front of him are various tools of his trade, including a screwdriver, scissors, a spool of black thread, a sponge-like object, and two bottles, one red and one yellow. A pair of light-colored slip-on shoes and a child's sneaker are also visible on the bench, suggesting a variety of footwear he might repair. The workshop appears rustic, with corrugated metal walls and a tin roof supported by wooden beams. The background shows a somewhat cluttered environment with more items stacked and hanging, indicative of a working space. The lighting suggests it is daytime, with sunlight casting shadows.
