Augustus Butera, Photographer, New York

Description

An editorial portrait captured by photographer Augustus Butera features an elderly woman standing inside a residential kitchen. Linear shadow stripes from window blinds cast a distinct pattern across the wall behind her, where an analog wall clock hangs, and across the side of her face. She wears glasses and a light-colored patterned short-sleeve top. The background includes white cabinetry, a dark countertop with a bowl of bananas and a blender, and a vertical architectural pillar. The natural lighting and striped shadow play define the visual composition of the scene.
