A square-format black-and-white photograph depicts a man with a medium skin tone from behind as he squeegees a glass door. He wears a dark jacket and cap, extending his arm upward. Ghostly reflections of a bicyclist and city buildings overlap the interior. A grooved vertical column stands to our right. Harsh sunlight bathes the glass and the figure's back in white, creating stark shadows and brilliant highlights across the scene.
