Chromogenic print of Blood Raw, Macedonia Garden Apartments

Object Details

Description
A color photograph of Blood Raw at Macedonia Garden Apartments.
Blood Raw is pictured standing outside next to a brick wall with a sign for Macedonia Garden Apartments. He is wearing a black baseball cap with a grey Oakland Raiders logo on it, a black sweatshirt that reads [GUNSHINE STATE] with a grey gun and the shape of Florida on it, and black pants. There is a white shirt under the sweatshirt and he has bracelets, a ring, and a watch. His right hand is pointing and his left arm is down by his side. He has a goatee, thin sideburns, and tiny braids in his hair. The image was taken outdoors at night. Trees and the lights of a building are visible across the street in the background of the image.
On the back, a handwritten inscription by Bill Adler identifies the subject, date, location and photographer.
