"Irv's Chicago" is a black and white photograph by Richard Gordon, taken sometime between 1973 and 1994. This image showcases a barber pole in the snowy foreground and the window of a shop covered in advertisements featuring images of muscular men, likely from a local gym. The composition and the image's graininess are characteristic of Gordon's street photography style, where he documented the everyday life of working-class neighborhoods in Chicago.
