The photograph titled “Candy Store, Amsterdam Avenue” by artist William Klein depicts an urban scene which seems to be taken on a street in New York. It shows a young boy seated with a somewhat somber or contemplative expression on his face, directly looking at the camera. The boy is in front of a checkered wall that might be the exterior of a store, with its pattern contributing to the strong visual texture of the scene. To his side stands an individual whose torso is cropped out of the frame, with the focus remaining on the lower half of the body, hands placed on the hips. The background prominently features various advertisements, including several for Chesterfield cigarettes, suggesting commercial and possibly societal commentary. The black and white tones of the image create a play of contrasts, further emphasizing the graphical elements of the composition.
