Aunt Athena poses in black and white against a slatted fence
Aunt Athena stands outdoors in this black and white portrait, her dark wavy hair framing her face as she leans slightly against a tall fence of vertical slats. She poses with one hand raised near her head and the other resting at her hip, her figure lit softly against the textured wood. Behind the fence, a wall shows faint painted shapes and a glimpse of sky above. The ground beneath her is smooth and plain, drawing the eye to her stance. The monochrome treatment gives the scene a classic, moody feel, with strong contrast between light and shadow. The frame is bordered in black, and a small handle mark sits along the bottom edge.
