Description

This striking monochromatic studio portrait, captured by photographer Mark Seliger in New York, features a central subject styled with dramatic, voluminous beehive hair and bangs. The person is wearing a buttoned white shirt with ruffled collar and cuffs, paired with dark high-waisted briefs.
