The black and white really appeals to me, the grime on his
face appears to almost be a shadow due to the nature of the picture. The
piercing colors of his eyes blend in with his face, giving a very subtle
impression with nice lighting. The darkness and ISO of the picture is perfect
in my opinion and the character that it portrays is very fascinating.
I love this picture because of the portrayal of the details
of this man’s face, instead of focusing on a larger area. it describes
Picasso’s face beautifully in a nice angle that captures every piece of his
face. Picasso’s eyes are shown with a curiosity that makes you want to see what
he looks at, the wrinkles and texture of his skin is obvious and very detailed.
The dark coloring really appeals to me as well and the white contrast of the
man’s eyes.
