Elaborate Funerals, Fantasy Coffins

ACCRA, GHANA - JULY 01: A talcum powder coffin, designed by Eric Kpakpo Adotey and painted by Joseph Adjetey Sowah, for the burial of the late Florence Akweley Tetteh, a trader in talcum powder and butter, who passed away at the age of 47 on July 1, 2019 in La Accra, Ghana. Among residents of Accra, the single, major highlight of a funeral is the coffin, leading to the creation of "fantasy coffins" or "proverbial coffins." These coffins are designed to reflect the personality, career, accomplishments or unfulfilled dreams of the deceased. (Photo by Nana Kofi Acquah/Getty Images for Lumix)
