Description
A black and white portrait shows an adult with short, light-colored hair, wearing a collared shirt and a suit jacket. The subject is shot in medium framing, with the background consisting of a superimposed, blurred combination of sky and foliage. A light area washes over the upper portion of the frame and across the subject's face. At chest level, a large, out-of-focus floral image is superimposed, adding a layer of abstraction to the portrait. The overall effect is a blend of a classic portrait with elements of surrealism due to the layering of images.
