This black-and-white photo shows a person in profile, wearing a dark hat and a suit jacket. Their face is half-lit, with a white patch covering one eye. The lighting is sharp, cutting across their face and arm like a spotlight. The contrast between light and dark makes the person stand out against the dark background. It looks like someone is performing or posing for a dramatic effect. If you like this style, look up chiaroscuro.
