Davis Bates, Photographer, London

Description

An interior scene captured by photographer Davis Bates in London features two subjects relaxing indoors. A Black man wearing a brown vest over a white t-shirt and green trousers is seated cross-legged on a hearth in front of a fireplace, pouring champagne from a bottle into a glass. A blonde woman wearing a tan cardigan, dark skirt, and tall knit leg warmers reclines comfortably on a light blue floor cushion in the foreground, looking toward the camera. A lamp on a stack of books and an ice bucket with champagne flutes sit nearby on the hearth surface. The composition uses flash lighting with natural interior tones, creating a candid documentary feel on a dark hardwood floor.
