About

This portrait photograph by Sydney-based photographer Pierre Toussaint features a Black man posing against a plain neutral background. He is wearing a heavy beige hooded coat with the hood drawn up around his head, and black leather gloves pulled tightly over his hands which are held near his chin. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the textures of the heavy wool fabric and the glossy leather gloves. The image is framed within a distinct analogue film border featuring visible frame numbers and sprocket marks.
