Kristian Schuller, Photographer, London

Description

This striking photographic portrait by photographer Kristian Schuller features a woman with elaborate vintage-styled hair and bold red lipstick. The composition is defined by a dramatic split-lighting effect that casts one half of her face in brilliant white light and the other in deep shadow, set against a pale yellow-green background. Her dark high-collared garment contrasts sharply with the vibrant illumination on her face. The high-contrast color grading and precise shadow placement emphasize the sculptural quality of her features.
