Michael Baumgarten, Photographer, Paris

Description

This striking photographic portrait by artist and photographer Michael Baumgarten features a model centered in the frame against a mottled dark grey concrete or plaster wall. The subject is defined by an abundance of extremely long, voluminous, light blonde curly hair that cascades down past the shoulders and torso. The model wears a dark patterned dress adorned with small, light-colored botanical or floral motifs. Soft, diffused lighting gently catches the texture of the hair and the weathered background. The composition is vertical and intimate, highlighting the contrast between the pale, voluminous hair and the dark, textured environment.
