Description

This striking portrait captured by photographer Marcus Eriksson features a close-up profile view of a bald Black man with a distinctive graying beard and trimmed white hair. He wears a dark plaid button-up shirt in tones of blue and black with subtle red stitching lines. The subject holds a large black cowboy hat up to his face, partially obscuring it while his intense eye gazes directly toward the camera. The lighting is dramatic and directional against a neutral dark background, highlighting the texture of his skin and the contour of the hat.
