New York 1987

"New York" is a 1987 black and white photograph by Rosalind Solomon. Solomon's work often captures the raw and intimate moments of everyday life, and this portrait is no exception. The subject, a young black man, is shown in a close-up, his face illuminated by a single beam of light. His pensive expression and the soft focus of the image create a sense of vulnerability and introspection. Solomon's masterful use of light and shadow underscores the importance of individual experiences and the complexities of urban life.
