Mark Seliger, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features a man with a thick beard and curly hair, wearing a dark belted coat, white shirt, and dark tie. He raises one hand near his forehead in a expressive gesture while looking downward. The lighting is high-contrast, casting strong shadows that accentuate the texture of the heavy fabric and his facial features. Set against a stark white background, the composition is clean and dramatic. The Esquire magazine logo appears in the top right corner of the frame.
