Michael Baumgarten, Photographer, Paris

Description

This portrait photograph by Michael Baumgarten captures a close-up view of a model with striking avant-garde makeup. The subject features pale skin adorned with washes of pastel blue eyeshadow across the forehead and bridge of the nose, alongside vibrant green shading over one eye. A short, dark black bob wig with a side parting frames the face cleanly. The composition focuses tightly on the shoulders and head against a muted, textured neutral background. Soft, diffused lighting accentuates the smooth contours of the face and the painterly application of colour.
