Head and shoulders portrait of a striking middle aged man facing the camera directly. He has short hair and a goatee, grey-green eyes and grey-blonde hair. The photo is taken in a high-key style which has bleached out his skin colour to look light beige. He is set against a white background which is bleached out on the left hand side, and light beige on the right so the background sometimes recedes and sometimes comes forward.

Brilliant #whiteoutportrait shoot with @eggsbened.bsky.social - currently writing the biography of Stephen Sondheim. He's a writer, arts critic + broadcaster + was formerly arts editor of The Independent + The Observer.
