A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts a man with a dark skin tone from the waist up, tilting his head back with eyes closed. He raises his hands while wearing heavy, draped fabric and beaded necklaces. Behind him on our left, another man looks toward our right. High contrast lighting creates bright highlights on the central figure's skin. Numerous blurred figures fill the background.
