Description

This diptych features a close-up comparison between nature and beauty. On the left, a section of a goldfish is displayed, focusing on its tail. The scales shimmer with metallic gold hues, and the translucent fins are a delicate pink. On the right, a human eye is shown, adorned with metallic gold makeup on the upper lid, complemented by pale skin tones. The eye is framed by dark lashes and a hint of blue in the inner corner. The backgrounds are contrasting, with the fish against a black backdrop and the eye against a pale, neutral surface, highlighting the textures and details of both subjects.
