Nicolas Kern, Photographer, New York

Description

This black and white documentary photograph captures three figures outdoors on a paved surface beneath a sign written in Cyrillic letters. In the foreground, two young boys in swim trunks walk side by side while casting distinct shadows in the harsh daylight. Directly behind them, an adult man walks closely behind, also shirtless and wearing shorts. The printed photograph rests among a stack of other photographic prints, visible against a neutral background. The high-contrast black and white processing emphasizes the bright overhead lighting and sharp ground shadows.
