Description

This black-and-white portrait features an elderly man wearing dark framed glasses and a structured dark suit over a light shirt. He stands outdoors against a dramatic backdrop of towering neoclassical architecture with massive stone columns and vertical lines. The low-angle perspective enhances the sense of scale, while the high-contrast lighting creates deep shadows and bright highlights. The frame includes visible film borders and edge markings, emphasizing an analogue photographic process. Make-up styling is provided by Nadia Altinbas.
