A somber and intensely lit high- key photograph of a despondent elderly woman, isolated against the drab monotonous backdrop of a small- town grocery store. Her worn face, creased with countless signs of hardship, is showcased through a tightly cropped composition, expressing a profound sense of despair and resignation, the sagging lines and folds suggesting deep sorrow etched across her features under the artificial fluorescent glow overhead, highlighted ever so starkly against the garish colours of advertisements for fruit and vegetables behind her, with a bleak, reflected loneliness stemming from eyes misted with a faint brim of unshed tears set deep within a tapestry of her lived years
