W. Powell collection on Africa 1930s

Title [Niapu and some of his people]
Reference Y304N/114
Content and context

The caption to the right of the photograph reads: 'In the centre of the picture is Niapu himself (wearing a felt hat). He is just walking off into the forest to relieve nature. This called for quite a ceremony. His orchestra who were sitting about, began playing with great abandon, and the girls began singing his praises'.
