| Description: | EVE'S FASHION NOTES - PERHAPS An African woman cleaning her teeth with a piece of wood. South Africa CU profile view of African woman who is rubbing the end of a stick back and forth on her teeth. At first glance it looks like she is brushing her teeth though of course this is not the conventional modern toothbrush. Nothing indicates conclusively whether the purpose is hygeine or beauty. She wears a scarf twisted and tied around her head, and a dress of matching fabric (white w/ dark circles all over it); she also wears 3 earrings going up her earlobe, and has a small bone through her pierced nose. | |
