Description

Subject Matter:

This image is a portrait of an old man on the street. He plays his guitar and looks out of frame. Though the subject matter is the man, the image is also as much about the shadows created by his figure and the shadows that fall across his body and face. He wears a hat and a casual suit with a cloak-like coat.
