India (Man Fixing a Bicycle)

View through Harvard Museums
A man in the center of the composition crouches amid a group of bicycles on a quiet street. He works on one bicycle, which reveals his face through its spoked wheels. Next to him, three more bicycles lean against an exterior wall, beneath a wooden doorway. The knotting of flesh and metal create a complex and dynamic composition.
