A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts a shirtless man with light skin tone behind vertical bars. He has a receding hairline, a mustache, and tattoos on his upper arm and forearm. He rests his arms on a horizontal bar and looks directly at us. Below, white cloth is draped on a bed, and a white plastic spoon sits on a ledge between the bars.
