A boy in fancy clothing holds a black rose between his teeth, his wrists chained to piping above his head. His shirt is open, revealing his hairless chest.
This photograph was suggested by Wendy Blackheart, who wrote:
I love this picture. The boy is so pretty and nicely dressed, and I love the contrast of him, looking all pretty and sharp, against the rough and dingy background. And the black rose is a great touch.
What makes the picture so attractive for me is the concerted and knowing look in the boy’s eyes. I read this look as one that says he’s exactly where he wants to be.
