A woman in three-quarter profile in a deep hood of wide-wale corduroy, forty raised cords running the length of it and each throwing its own long soft shadow. Flat saturated vermillion ground. Hard key from above, the cord ridges lit and the valleys in true black. Skin oiled and photoreal, pores and freckles sharp. flat saturated ground, extremely high tonal separation, one hard specular event, dense fine detail held sharp, skin oiled and photoreal with pores held sharp, no grain. the ground colour at full strength with no grey or washed areas, deep true black across a large part of the frame, the specular highlights small and contained with no blown-out white areas
