Description
Creator of the image: Yuriy Rudyy (George Rudy)
Date of the image creation: c. 2015
Medium: Photograph
Person depicted: Anonymous Caucasian model
This stock image was shot by Yuriy Rudyy, a Ukrainian Shutterstock photographer, and it is accompanied by the following caption: ‘Bright caucasian man spraying water on his face after shaving in the bathroom at home’. This image depicts an everyday encounter with that most vital non-human substance, water. The stock image has been used twice to accompany articles written by Australia’s men’s fashion ‘journalist’ Dennis Green. These two articles in the magazine Business Insider were called ‘The biggest mistake men make with their skin, according to a dermatologist’ and ‘3 things men should do for perfect skin’, completely blur the line between advertisement and article, quoting a representative from ‘Dove Men+Care’ and including a link to an Amazon page selling daily facial cleanser.
