While Basquiat often provided glimpses into his conflicted character through his own art, Taylor’s photograph offers an intimate, and perhaps more honest, portrait from the outside. The clever exploration of light and dark reveals the dichotomies that divided the artist; both his fragile and playful, tender and brazen sides are unveiled at only 19 years old. A soft glow is cast across Basquiat’s face, communicating a tenderness and affection that only a close friend could capture.
