Description
This black and white portrait by photographer Robert Ascroft features a seated man wearing a dark suit, dress shirt, and tie. He holds an ornate trophy award in one hand while seated in dark, contoured chairs. In the foreground to his left, a vintage television unit with large mechanical dials and a screen displaying the letters TV is prominent. Strong overhead lighting casts a dramatic shadow of the subject against the textured wall behind him. The high-contrast monochromatic grading emphasizes the textures of the vinyl seating and the metallic details of the award.
