ID 184266848 © Txarofranco | Megapixl.com
In the vertical photograph, a Himba woman is seen holding her young son. The mother shows the adornments typical of her culture: necklaces, bracelets ... The most striking thing is the way they adorn the hair: they separate strands that are completely impregnated with clay so that they remain as rigid corkscrews finished in a section of loose hair. In addition, it covers the entire body with a kind of cream prepared with a mixture of clay and fat, which protects them from the sun and mosquitoes, while allowing them to keep the skin hydrated. The naked baby is adorned with necklaces and a beaded belt. The mother is sitting on the floor. In front he exhibits bracelets and necklaces that he sells to tourists.
