Description
Editorial portrait of Hakeem Jeffries photographed by David Urbanke for The New Yorker accompanying the feature Can Hakeem Jeffries Lead a Democratic Takeover of the House. Jeffries is captured from the chest up in a tight framing, wearing a dark navy suit jacket, a light pink tie, and an American flag lapel pin. He rests his chin thoughtfully on his hand while looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. The lighting is warm and directional, casting gentle shadows across his face against a dark, richly toned interior background. Magazine layout elements including article text and captions are visible surrounding the photograph.
