About

A woman sits on a patterned purple rug in a brightly lit room, building a large house of cards from a deck with pink and white patterns. She wears a sleeveless pleated purple gown with a plunging neckline and holds a playing card up near her right hand. Behind her rests a long, curved yellow velvet tufted sofa with button detailing against a wall with draped curtains. A glass coffee table with gold legs sits on the left side of the frame, and scattered playing cards lie across the floor around the house of cards and her dress. The photograph was captured by photographer Emily Shur in Los Angeles.
