a black and white photograph of a woman in a long, sheer black dress. she is sitting with her knees bent and her hands resting on her lap. the dress is formfitting, and the fabric appears to be a delicate mesh or net. the woman's hair is styled in a short, bobbed cut, typical of the 1920s or 1930s. the background is a plain, dark wall, with the shadows of the woman cast on the wall behind her, creating a dramatic effect. the photograph is beautifully lit, highlighting the texture of the dress and the woman's features. the overall mood of the image is mysterious, elegant, and sensual.
