Description

A striking portrait of a black man wearing a vivid multicoloured turban layered in shades of red, yellow, green, and orange. He is dressed in a bold red structured jacket with a wide collar and buttons. In his hand, he holds woven plant stems against an out-of-focus background of blue ocean and a pale coastline. The natural lighting highlights the rich tones of his skin and the textured fabrics of his attire.
