Description

Alan Cumming is captured in a striking portrait for InStyle U.S. titled The Art of Playing. He wears a textured metallic gold jacket, holding wooden chess pieces close to his hands while making a playful expression toward the camera. The studio backdrop is a neutral solid grey, perfectly framing the subject with soft, directional lighting that highlights the textured fabric and his silver hair. Photographers Eric Michael Roy and Max Montgomery captured the session, with fashion styling by Kevin Huynh and Sam Spector, and set design by Amy Jo Diaz.
