Anton Corbijn, Photographer, London

About

This striking black and white monochrome portrait captures two women in a close-up composition. Both subjects feature elaborate curly hairstyles and wear ornate sequined headbands with dangling embellishments, alongside dramatic winged eyeliner and dark lipstick. The woman on the left holds a lit cigarette between her lips, while the woman on the right tilts her head back exhaling smoke. The high-contrast lighting accentuates the textured fabrics and sparkling details of their accessories. The portrait exudes a theatrical and expressive mood characteristic of the photographer's signature style.
