Theo Darling, Photographer, New York

Description

This studio photograph by Theo Darling captures a domestic scene against a neutral background. A young boy stands on a red wooden step ladder, reaching up to place an ornament on a sparse Christmas tree, while a woman with long blonde hair stands beside him, holding another ornament and placing a gentle hand on his back. The boy wears a green knit sweater and beige trousers, while the woman wears a brown sweater, green and white plaid trousers, and black ankle boots. At the base of the tree sits a plaid fabric skirt, and a beige luggage case rests on the floor near the ladder. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting the textures of the knitwear and the wood of the ladder.
