An interactive portfolio of portraits by Platon of world leaders, with commentary by the photographer.
This past September, when nearly all the world’s leaders were in New York for a meeting of the United Nations, Platon, a staff photographer for this magazine, set up a tiny studio off the floor of the General Assembly, and tried to hustle as many of them in front of his lens as possible.
His commentary on Qaddafi was quite interesting, especially when he described his eyes.
