In 2014 and 2015, Pieter Hugo met the subjects of his photographs in San Francisco's Tenderloin and Los Angeles's Skid Row districts. The high-key lighting of the relentless California sun characterizes these outdoor portraits made in the city streets.

Hugo pairs this theme of abandonment with a style that invokes Dutch Golden Age or Baroque master painters such as Caravaggio or Frans Hals.
