Hugh Masekela performs, eyes closed, playing trumpet in London
A close-up, black and white portrait shows South African jazz musician Hugh Masekela playing the trumpet in London in 1985. Masekela's face is visible from the forehead to just below the chin, angled slightly to the right, with his eyes closed and brow furrowed in concentration. Sweat beads are visible across his forehead, nose, and cheeks. The trumpet's mouthpiece is pressed against his lips, and part of the instrument's tubing extends to the left. The background is dark and out of focus. The bottom left of the print is inscribed "Hugh Masekela, London, 1985" and the bottom right is signed "F. Webb."
