The Portrait of Hardship

I captured this image while walking around the the lanes of north Kolkata.Through this portrait I have tried to cease the story of it's own,the drudgery and hardship of a labour,the harshness reality.His "flashing eyes",illuminates the grandeur of a potent creator,who rolls on the cycle of livelihood of this machine-dependent civilisation.
