About this work

This is a black-and-white photo of a man in a suit and tie. He’s eating something—maybe a doughnut—with his mouth open. His hair is slicked back, and he looks straight at you, serious but a little awkward. The photo is simple but feels funny. The man’s tie is neatly knotted, but the doughnut makes it look silly. It’s just a plain picture, but the weird mix of formal and casual stands out. If you like this, check out Maurizio Cattelan, the artist who made it.
