Igbo Yam Barn with Male Figure

A photograph depicting stacks of yam tied in a traditional Igbo yam barn. The image shows a large vertical wooden framework constructed from irregular, unworked poles that act as supports and cross-members. Yams are suspended from horizontal beams by closely spaced vertical cords, creating a dense, repetitive texture of oblong organic materials. A man wearing a light-colored, long-sleeved shirt and dark trousers stands in the lower-left quadrant, providing scale to the structure, which extends several meters in height. The photograph is a gelatin silver print.
