Gentl And Hyers, Photographer, New York

Description

This black and white portrait captures the weathered beauty of an elderly woman. She is smiling gently and looking off to the side. She wears a dark headscarf wrapped around her head, and multiple strands of large bead necklaces. A patterned top with a light design covers her shoulders. Her skin shows the lines and textures of age, adding character to her face. The photograph has high contrast, emphasizing the details of the textures and the subtle shadows on the woman's face. The background is a blurred textured wall, keeping the focus on the subject. Glasses hang from one of her necklaces.
