This is an incredible photograph, the look on this guy's face says it all. His expression reminds me of The Pogues' song “Fairytale of New York,” it's so full of mixed up emotions about the Christmas season. On the hand the man looks a bit happy, but on the other hand he looks much more sad. It reminds me of the Comedia Dell'Arte masks. This picture's a brilliant commentary on the ambivalence of the holidays.

This piece presents a number of additional photographs, as well as the wonderful music video by The Pogues and Kirsty McColl, “Fairytale of New York.”

Please visit my website to view the photographs, and to watch this music video:
