Richard Phibbs, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking editorial photograph by Richard Phibbs captures a profile view of a woman wearing an avant-garde black hat designed to resemble a sailing ship, complete with delicate rigging and masts. She is dressed in an ornate, dark patterned garment. The background features the imposing stone facade of a historic fortress tower under an overcast sky, with several birds in flight surrounding the structure. The composition utilizes natural lighting and a moody, atmospheric color palette that emphasizes the sculptural qualities of the headwear.
