Various Editorials Exit at the Bowery for The blank page magazine 2025

Description

This striking black and white editorial portrait features actor Simon Baker leaning casually against a weathered, graffiti-covered wall in a narrow urban alleyway. Captured by photographer Eric James Guillemain with hair styling by Peter Gray, the composition draws the viewer's eye down the deep perspective of the corridor toward an illuminated entrance structure in the distance. The stark monochromatic tones highlight the rich textures of the brickwork, metal fire escapes overhead, and the textured surfaces flanking the scene. Baker stands in profile, looking thoughtfully away from the camera, embodying a candid and contemplative mood characteristic of high-end magazine storytelling. The image was created as part of the Exit at the Bowery project for The blank page magazine.
