A black and white photograph of a man leaning against a railing at a train station, with a sign in Italian above him that reads "ATTENZIONE NON GETTATE NULLA SUI PIAZZALI," which translates to "Attention do not throw anything on the ground." The man is dressed in a dark suit and tie, holding a book under his arm, and has a contemplative expression on his face.
