Description

This striking monochrome portrait features an elderly woman with her eyes closed in a contemplative expression. She wears a patterned floral top and has her hands raised to frame the sides of her face, touching her temples. The high-contrast black and white grading emphasizes the fine textures of her skin and features. Shot by photographer Sandro in Chicago, the image employs dramatic lighting to create deep shadows and a moody atmosphere.
