Description

An adult woman with dark skin poses in front of a textured blue and white wall. She wears a white, draped mini-dress with a gold beaded bodice and tall gold flats that wrap up the legs with gold leaf designs. The woman’s arms are up, bent at the elbows, and her hands reach toward the wall. Her legs are spread wide, and she looks straight ahead. Studio lighting creates shadows on her face and body. The background wall appears distressed.
