Black-and-white portrait of a middle-aged man with light-colored, neatly styled hair and a trimmed mustache. He is wearing a pinstripe suit, patterned tie, and white shirt, standing in front of a plain background. His expression is calm and composed.

"The problem with putting two and two together is that sometimes you get four, and sometimes you get twenty-two."
― Dashiell Hammett
