| Content and context |
84 x 56 mm. The Juju man is seen between the two chindas in their ceremonial regalia. His garb is clearly seen and consists of a deep red gown reaching to his knees and a wooden mask carved as a grotesque face stuck on top of his head. The Mimbo is poured from the long necked calabashes into the artistically worked earthenware pot. |
