Description

This striking black and white portrait captures an elderly man posing with a serious expression. He wears a classic cowboy hat, a patterned neckscarf tucked into a collared shirt, and a tailored suit jacket, holding his jacket lapels with his hands. The high-contrast lighting accentuates the textures of his clothing and facial features against a clean, plain background. The composition is a focused waist-up shot emphasizing character and traditional attire. The photograph was taken by Elizabeth Lavin.
