A black-and-white photograph of Dr. Dre, by Platon. The photograph of Dre depicts him from the waist up, seated, and leaning on his upraised knee. He is facing the viewer with his eyes closed.

He is resting his proper left cheek against the back of his proper right hand. The photograph was taken from near his proper right knee which appears disproportionately large in the foreground. He is wearing a dark tone sweater and jeans. The background of the photograph is bright white. The photograph has a thick white border. The edition number, [5/12], is printed in the bottom left corner. The photographer’s signature and date, [Platon 19], is handwritten in the bottom right corner.
