Wide photograph from a very low camera tilted up. A freshly painted cobalt fluted concrete wall, clean and evenly sunlit, cuts the frame edge to edge on one hard diagonal and fills the lower left, its flutes converging in strong perspective, each flute a slightly different value of the same cobalt. A deep turquoise sky fills the upper right with a thin bright coping line along the join. A strikingly beautiful woman with sharp editorial features, high fashion casting, in a matte scarlet wool coat stands in front of the wall with the wall running away behind her, cropped at the thigh, her head and torso crossing the diagonal, one arm thrown across her body and the other raised with the hand flexed open, the scarlet holding its hue in shadow so the body reads as one flat shape. Hard sun, three saturated hues. Imperious and theatrical, the body used as pure gesture.
