A slight, wiry man in a battered fedora sits on a crate outside a shuttered factory, carefully rolling a cigarette. Shot on Kodak Panatomic-X film with a Contax I camera and Zeiss Sonnar 50mm lens, the photograph embodies 1930s Dynamic Social Realism. The normal contrast and fine silver grain capture the gritty textures of the Depression era with unvarnished, empathetic clarity.
