Denotations
The background, of the picture is set on a bricked wall. The words ‘Devlin’, are styled along the wall., in clear bold writing. Underneath it, there is the title “Bud, Sweat, and Beers”, in calligraphy writing on the wall. There is also a character who is standing with his back leaned on the wall, he is looking away from the camera. There are also cracks in the wall he is leaning on. In addition to this he is wearing all black.
Connotations
The Clear white writing, stands out on the wall, and gives the audience the impression that the text is sprayed onto the wall itself. The cracked wall can represent Devlin’s life, and the brick wall can represent labourers, and also council estate blocks. The fact Devlin is wearing black can symbolize evil. He is also refraining from looking at the camera, this may mean he has something to hide, or he is at un ease about something.
