The image is a black and white photograph of a man sitting on a set of stairs. The stairs are made of stone and appear to be old and weathered. The man is bald and is wearing a long-sleeved shirt and jeans. He is sitting on the steps with his legs crossed and his hands resting on his knees. His head is down and his eyes are closed, as if he is deep in thought. The image is taken from a low angle, looking up at the stairs. There is a shadow of the man on the right side of the image.
