content: A color photograph of Questlove, by Platon. Questlove is depicted from the waist up, behind a wooden table, with his elbows propped on the table surface. He is facing the viewer with his arms are folded over his chest, head is turned slightly towards his proper right shoulder, and with his eyes are closed. He is wearing a black suit jacket over a gray hoodie. He’s also wearing thick, black rimmed glasses and has an Afro pick woven into his hair on the proper right side of his head. He has a trimmed mustache and beard. The table appears to be constructed from thick horizontal slabs of bleached wood. The background of the photograph is champagne pink. The photograph has a thick white border. The edition number, [5/12], is printed in the bottom left corner. The photographer’s signature and date, [Platon 19], is handwritten in the bottom right corner. Inside the border, at the bottom center, is the photographer’s embossed mark: [PLATON ? / EDITIONED ? / PRINT ?[encircled between two bands of embossed dots]]. The back of the photograph is plain and white.
