Description

A young woman sits on a concrete ledge with her arms wrapped around her legs, knees to chest, in a monochromatic outdoor fashion portrait. The model has curly hair, a neutral facial expression, and wears a dark top and shiny embellished footwear. In the background is a stone sculpture of human figures on horseback, partially obscured by a creeping vine. The image has strong contrast and is mostly in shades of grey. The environment appears to be a public space. The lighting is diffused, with a hint of backlighting.
