Mr. Scumbeast's original caption for this was "just standing there." When someone in remarked in the comments that this wasn't as witty usual, he replied "Well, the blank look on his face matches the one on my own when I tried to think of something." Better late than never.
If the description fits...What's the background? It looks like a paint-splashed board, maybe.
ReplyDeleteThe background may be part of a larger scene of some sort. A lot of late Victorian and early 20th C. photographers used tapestry like canvas backdrops. Or it might be a housepainter's dropcloth, lol.
DeleteYes, it doesn't look as if the lights are on in the attic. He's definitely not a "natural".
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's sort of like, "OK, I'll get naked for the money, but that's all I can manage."
DeleteAny idea of the darkish halo around his head?
ReplyDeleteNo.
