Purple Mistress

An oversized purple headdress frames a small silver mask above layers of violet fabric and jeweled embroidery. Gloved hands hold a miniature decorative mask, echoing the face above. Photographed during the Venice Carnival, the portrait brings together sculptural proportions, rich color and intricate details within a single costume.
