A woman sits sideways on a dark, shadowy couch, dressed in a long purple gown with a draped, ruffled skirt. Her one bare leg rests on the armrest, and she wears a necklace, bracelet, and earrings. The background is mostly black, but her face and hands glow softly, almost like a spotlight. Her pose is relaxed, but the way the light hits her face and hands makes them stand out. The dark background makes her look like she’s floating. Look up chiaroscuro next to see how this lighting trick works.
