Four men in formal suits and fedoras stand shoulder to shoulder against a shadowy, gradient background in this black and white photograph, their postures rigid and their expressions stern. The composition uses dramatic lighting that fades the background to near-obscurity, emphasizing the sharp focus on their faces and the structured geometry of their dark silhouettes. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
