Moody portrait of a Vietnamese man, circa 1980. He sits calmly, gazing directly into the lens with a Mona-like serenity. His smooth face, free from whiskers (râu ria), is illuminated by soft, warm lighting that accentuates his gentle features. The framing is tight, focusing attention on his introspective expression. In the background, subtle texture and shading evoke a sense of nostalgia and timelessness.
