This black-and-white photo shows a single man sitting alone on a curb at night. His back is turned. One shoe lies beside him. A lit cigarette glows in his hand. In the 1960s, Greek artists used realism to show how modern life could feel empty. Botsoglou shot this during Greece’s dictatorship, when people often felt watched—or ignored. Look up a photo by Botsoglou, Chronis (1941-2022).
