Black-and-white photograph of a seated black man who is receiving medical care from two other individuals. The man has an anguished expression, with his mouth open in pain, and he wears a button-up shirt that is spattered with blood. The brown-skinned person on the man's right, whose back is to the camera, tends to the man's right eye. On the left a white-skinned person reaches into the frame, and holds the man's head steady.
