Portraits

These portraits linger on faces and gesture rather than grand scenes, from dancers caught mid-movement to a smoker exhaling in close study. Sitters range from royalty to artists and family, rendered with close attention to expression, as in "A Woman" by Amedeo Modigliani. Settings stay quiet and plain, keeping focus on the person pictured.
