Description

On typed listing "46.16; huts at village beyond Mazabuka; 29.8.61; Zambia; Southern; Mazabuka district; hut painting; wall decoration; village scene; houses; present"

The same house from the first photo of this set, but from behind you can see that one of the alternating triangles, the one directly behind the entrance, which is normally filled with dots, has a more intricate pattern. The bottom of the triangle has a white circle with a brown dot in the centre, and up the length of the triangle runs a white line. Coming off of that line the dots are organised in arcs, sort of in a fishbone pattern. [FG 31/07/2025]
