This painting is of a man with his back turned to the viewer. He is facing a brown wall with his head slightly turned to right. He is looking out a window, but all the viewer can see is the edge of a wooden window frame. The man has dark hair mixed with gray and a bald spot at the top of his head. He is wearing gold wire-framed glasses. He is wearing a stiff, dark black shirt with a collar. He stands with his hands clasped behind his back.

An enormous and complex multi-figure painting set in an African-American beauty salon/beauty academy. Mirrors in the painting are outlined in glitter, which Marshall applies to the surface in a gel medium. The painting’s unstretched canvas surface has grommets running along its outer perimeter. The painting hangs on screws threaded through the grommets. The composition ends just short of the support’s outer edges.
