Other Information:
Rueben Rikita was E-P's clerk during his fieldwork among the Azande, completing a survey of clan affiliations during 1929-30 when E-P was absent from the field. [Chris Morton 9/10/2003] This print crops the figure to the right, dressed in Zande manner, by about 2mm, thereby losing the face of the individual to the right which is more evident in the negative.
