The Mysterious Homosexual Vintage Photograph & Paper Collage

$50.00
A sauve man in fedora and jacket stands confidently before the photographer, shoulders relaxed and hands clasped. His eyes are cast in shadows and despite them not being visible, his gaze is undeniably felt. What he is looking at or searching for is unknown and this creates an air of mystery about this homosexual.

Queer people have historically operated in the shadows and fringes of society, and not by choice. In the US, the LGBTQIA community had to avoid scrutiny from the glaring beam of judgemental eyes, vice squads and authorities who wished them harm.

Perhaps the mysteriousness of this homosexual isn't an affect to project coolness, but rather a coping mechanism for survival.

The piece is matted in an oval window and fits an American standard 9" x 12" frame. Art registry number and information are inside the piece.
