Description
This black and white still life photograph captures an overhead arrangement of several transparent champagne coupes and porcelain tableware resting on a textured fabric surface. Strong, direct lighting creates dramatic shadows and swirling caustic patterns cast across the tablecloth by the glassware. The composition is tightly cropped, emphasizing the translucent curves of the stems and bowls against the patterned background. The monochrome palette accentuates the tactile qualities of the textiles and the reflective highlights on the glass. The image is photographed by Martyn Thompson.
