Robert Ascroft, Photographer, New York

Description

A striking portrait captured by photographer Robert Ascroft featuring a smiling black woman in her 50s with long braided hair. She wears a strapless black evening gown with a thigh-high slit and a dramatic long train lined in red, complemented by a thin necklace and bracelets. She stands with her hand on her hip beside a multi-panel folding screen painted with a landscape scene. The indoor setting features teal tiled flooring, a mauve wall on the left, a dark blue wall on the right, and the edge of a matching tufted velvet sofa visible in the foreground. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the textures of her dress and hair against the richly colored interior backdrop.
