Alberto Zanetti, Photographer,

Description

An eye-level, full shot captures a gray-haired senior man lying with his eyes closed, centered and facing upward. The man is surrounded by a variety of breakfast food items, creating a surreal, messy food-covered portrait. Splattered around him are broken eggs, tomato slices, lemon halves, coffee grounds, pastries, and other food remnants. The background is a white surface, which may be a bed or a flat surface covered with white fabric. The lighting is bright and even, enhancing the visibility of the food and the man's face. The photograph's overall effect is striking and unusual, blending portraiture with food photography.
