Stephan Vanfleteren, Photographer, Milan

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features an elderly man with a long white beard and flowing hair, seated barefoot on a fabric-covered surface. He wears a heavy, textured wool coat with a prominent collar and rings on his fingers. His expression is intense and direct as he gazes forward from a dimly lit studio setting. The soft, directional lighting accentuates the deep textures of the draped fabric and his weathered features, creating a raw and contemplative mood. The composition is captured in a vertical format with rich tonal contrast characteristic of a fine art photographic study.
