Yeah, other than that the painter really nailed the perspective.
I don't want to draw unnecessary attention to the subject of the last sentence, but here in Washington state I've seen plenty of mid-twenties white guys sporting the 'droopy drawers' look. Up here they generally come with rat-tails and untied high-tops. In Wal-mart such attire is even common on larger middle-aged women. And to think it all began on the Union Ball grounds back in 1870.
