Description

A ballet dancer is captured in profile standing en pointe on a dark floor against a textured light wall. The dancer wears a sleeveless, sheer layered dress with her hair styled in a high bun. Her arms are crossed loosely in front of her torso with hands clasped behind. Strong directional lighting casts a distinct shadow on the wall behind the subject. The monochromatic photograph emphasizes tonal contrast and sculptural form.
