Carlotta Manaigo, Photographer, Milan

Description

A black and white portrait captures an elderly adult male with his eyes closed, and holding eyeglasses in his left hand. He rests his chin pensively on the index finger of his right hand. The subject's wrinkled face is softly lit, emphasizing the aged texture of his skin. He is wearing a dark garment with a high collar. The eyeglasses are dark rimmed and reflect the light. The background is plain and bright, which accentuates the contrast with the subject and the dark clothing. The photograph is shot in a close-up, focusing on the man's face and hands.
