Gli Huli della Papua Nuova Guinea, hanno una struttura sociale rigidamente gerarchizzata e basata sul possesso di una "parrucca", prodotta con capelli, fiori e piume di uccello del paradiso. Ogni aspetto della loro quotidianità è volto all'accrescimento del prestigio dato dalla loro parrucca, una vera e propria discriminante sociale, che occupa gran parte della loro giornata: cacciano e lavorano duramente, solo per onorare le loro parrucche con le piume più pregiate, e studiano per conoscere sempre più a fondo la loro tricologica tradizione culturale. Ci vuole fino a un anno e mezzo per possedere una parruca-base. In questa immagine è raffigurato un Huli che non indossa il prezioso copricapo.

I love everything about this portrait: light, detail, background, colors, and above all the great expressiveness of the face.
In short, in my opinion, is absolutely perfect.
My sincere congratulations, you made a good shot, that I envy you. Exactly how I envy the journey you have made, such as Luigi ..
