Bruce Gilden, Photographer, London

Description

This striking monochrome portrait captured by photographer Bruce Gilden features an older woman with curly blonde hair wearing bold dark sunglasses and a studded leather jacket over a light button-down shirt. The high-contrast black-and-white treatment emphasizes the rich textures of the leather, metal hardware, and brick wall in the background. The low-angle composition creates a powerful, direct presence as the subject gazes slightly off-camera. Visible text across the center reads Cutler and Gross and The Great Frog.
