François Rousseau, Photographer, Paris

Description

A nude male artisan stands on a concrete pedestal with a solid light-grey backdrop. He is in a discus-throwing pose, holding a grey discus in his left hand and his right hand on his bent right leg. He is wearing a white construction hard hat. The image appears to be studio photography, and the lighting has low-key characteristics. The tonality of the image is mostly black, grey, and white, with some light sepia tones.
