About this work

This is a black-and-white photo of a man sitting, holding a piece of paper. His clothes look old-fashioned, with a high collar and buttons down the front. The paper beneath him has writing that’s hard to read, but it looks like a name. The photo looks aged, with some smudges and stains. The artist’s name, *Fratelli Alinari*, is written in the corner, which is unusual for a photo. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
