Description
David Byrne in a light-colored pinstripe suit is captured mid-speech or song, holding a microphone close to their mouth. The person is lit from above and below, with strong contrasts highlighting facial features and the texture of the suit. The background is dark, with out-of-focus stage scaffolding faintly visible. The figure appears composed and expressive, suggesting a live performance setting.
