In this image, we witness skilled artisans meticulously shaping clay into exquisite pots using their hands and simple tools. Their expertise is evident as they effortlessly mold each vessel with precision and finesse. This age-old technique showcases Africa's rich cultural heritage and its deep connection to ceramics. The Nigerian landscape provides a stunning backdrop for this scene, with lush greenery stretching out as far as the eye can see. It serves as a reminder of how closely intertwined nature is with human creativity and craftsmanship. Dating back to 1966, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era when traditional methods were still widely practiced in Nigeria.
