A grainy, film-style photograph with the text "GASLIGHTING 101" in a typewriter font across the top. In a dimly lit room, a man with a confused, questioning expression stands by a floor lamp. Behind him, in the shadows, another figure's hand is on a wall light switch, seemingly dimming the room's light, illustrating the psychological manipulation of gaslighting.
