Anton Corbijn, Photographer, London

Description

This striking black and white photographic portrait by Anton Corbijn features two men composed with a shallow depth of field. In the background left, Dave Gahan wears dark sunglasses with a serious expression and slicked-back hair. In the foreground right, another man is heavily blurred, creating a layered, atmospheric composition with high contrast lighting and deep shadows typical of Corbijn's signature style.
