The image is a black and white photograph of a man sitting on a rocky cliff overlooking the ocean. He is wearing a long-sleeved shirt and trousers and appears to be deep in thought. The man is sitting on the edge of the cliff, with his legs crossed and his hands resting on his knees. In front of him, there is a tall wooden pole with a large black cloud of smoke rising from it. The sky is overcast and the ocean can be seen in the background. The photograph appears to have been taken from a low angle, looking out towards the horizon.
