This black-and-white photo shows an older man sitting in a dim, cluttered room. He’s mending something small by a window, wearing a dark coat and cap. The walls are plain, with a few framed photos and a small table holding a lamp and papers. The room looks lived-in, with a simple bed in the background and a few tools scattered around. The lighting is soft, making the man’s face stand out against the shadows. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and dark like this.
