Mark Seliger, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochrome photographic portrait features a man and a tall woman standing close together in an outdoor urban setting. The woman wears a dark fitted dress and a delicate necklace, with her arm resting affectionately around the man's shoulder. The man wears a dark button-down shirt and trousers, with a gold chain necklace visible around his neck. They are positioned against a rough, textured stone or concrete wall with faint graffiti markings, while the ground consists of loose gravel and rocks. Bold white typography across the left side reads THE CHRISTOPHER STREET STORIES. The stark black and white grading emphasizes the strong tonal contrasts and textures throughout the frame.
