Georgy Beregovoy, the Soviet test pilot and cosmonaut, shown full-length from head to feet, standing upright and centered — a broad-shouldered, solidly built man in his late fifties with a strong, open Slavic face, high forehead, square jaw, kind watchful grey eyes with weathered laugh lines, and short neatly combed greying hair swept back. He wears the dress uniform of a Soviet Air Force officer-cosmonaut: deep blue-grey wool tunic with gold buttons, decorated chest bearing the gold Hero of the Soviet Union star and rows of campaign ribbons, dark trousers with a stripe, and polished black leather dress shoes. He stands at calm attention, chin level, a composed dignified expression. Behind him a solemn space-training facility: pale concrete walls, a distant rocket gantry at dawn. Grounded, realistic, no aura or glow.
