Hush

A gold-gloved finger rises to the lips beneath a tall orange and gold headdress crowded with small ornaments. A decorative fan and richly patterned fabric frame the masked figure against Venetian arches. Photographed during the Venice Carnival, the portrait combines a quiet gesture with abundant theatrical detail.
