Giampaolo Sgura, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome image captured by photographer Giampaolo Sgura in New York features a young man in the foreground wearing a tailored black tuxedo and bow tie, gazing directly toward the camera with a serious expression. Another individual is sharply out of focus in the immediate right foreground, creating depth through selective focus, while a third man in formalwear attends to the table in the background. The scene is set at a formally laid dinner table with patterned porcelain plates and glassware visible under dramatic low-contrast lighting. The rich grayscale tonal range emphasizes the crisp lines of the suiting and the reflective textures of the tableware.
