Description
This black and white editorial image captured by photographer Edwin S Freyer for 5ELEVEN Magazine portrays a cinematic scene titled French New Wave. In the foreground, the back of a person with dark hair wearing a light-coloured garment with a thin strap is softly out of focus. In the background, a man with dark hair styled in a fringe wears a dark suit jacket, white collared shirt, and dark tie while seated on a cushioned sofa, holding a lit cigarette between his fingers. The styling by Alton Hetariki contributes to the retro atmosphere, complemented by makeup from Sarah Wandee. The composition employs a shallow depth of field, drawing attention to the seated male figure while maintaining a narrative interplay between the two individuals. The lighting is soft and directional, accentuating the textures of the clothing and the grain characteristic of the monochrome grade.
