Black and white portrait of a man wearing dark sunglasses, patterned shirt, and heavy shearling collar coat

Michael Avedon, Photographer, New York

About

This striking monochrome portrait features a bearded man looking downward with a pensive expression, captured in high-contrast black and white. He wears dark sunglasses and adjusts them with a hand adorned with multiple ornate rings. His outfit includes a patterned high-collar shirt layered beneath a heavy coat featuring a prominent plush shearling collar. The composition is a tightly cropped upper-body shot set against a clean, neutral background. The high-contrast lighting accentuates the textures of the coat, the metallic sheen of the rings, and the detailed patterns of the garments.
