Ellen Von Unwerth, Photographer, Berlin

Description

A woman with blond hair is reclining on a white, rumpled bedspread while holding a black rotary phone to her ear. She is wearing a dark bodysuit and fishnet stockings. The photo is shot in monochrome and the composition includes a newspaper with the words "ROXIE ROXY CHICAGO" printed in bold on the front page. The lighting is dramatic, with strong contrasts between light and shadow. The environment appears to be indoors, with the bed taking up a large portion of the frame. The camera angle is slightly high, giving a good view of the woman and her surroundings.
