A photograph depicting a page from a bound photographic album containing three monochromatic panoramic prints. The prints, captured with a Kodak No.1 Panoram camera, show wide-angle outdoor scenes of communal activities, thatched-roof structures, and tropical foliage. Handwritten identification numbers (3942, 3975, and 3970) are visible beneath each photograph. These images were part of Northcote Thomas's anthropological surveys in Southern Nigeria between 1909 and 1915 and were originally deposited in the Colonial Secretariat in Lagos before being transferred to the National Museum, Lagos.
