Steve Takemura 1993

"Steve Takemura," a 1993 black and white photograph by Nancy Andrews, captures a man standing against a wall with a window's shadow cast across it. The subject, facing the viewer, is dressed casually in a turtleneck sweater and positioned close to the left edge of the frame. The use of light and shadow creates a sense of mystery and emphasizes the starkness of the composition. Andrews is known for her portraits of individuals from diverse backgrounds, and this piece exemplifies her keen observation of human subjects.
