A close-up, black-and-white photograph depicts a freckled boy with light skin, his face oriented diagonally. Metal braces glint as his eyes look toward our right. From our left, a dog's dark snout presses against his cheek. Strong highlights illuminate the boy's skin and the dog's nose, while his hair and the background recede into deep shadow.
