This black and white is terrific. It clearly shows all the planes and angles of his chiseled features. This is a pic to salivate over. Being an artist and into portraits, this is the one I would paint if I owned the photo. Wow!
Oh -- a painter -- cool. Do you need the actual photo, for better resolution for your sketching? That's the problem with all these wonderful pics we can get on-line, they're not good resolution. But yes, this is a beautiful B/W study.
