About this work

This painting shows a couple slow-dancing. The man wears a dark suit with a white shirt. The woman’s red dress stands out against the dark background. Their faces are close, but the colors are bold and flat. Notice how the artist used bright, solid colors instead of realistic shading. The background is mostly black with a yellow glow in the corner.
