Peter Rigaud, Photographer, Paris

About

This portrait photograph by Peter Rigaud, captured in Paris, features a young man partially obscured behind a large basketball held close to the camera lens. The basketball dominates the foreground with its textured leather surface, orange and black panels, and visible branding. The subject's dark, curly hair and eyes are visible just above the basketball, looking directly toward the camera. The background consists of a solid, bright turquoise backdrop that provides a high-contrast setting for the subject and object.
