Title

Margarita at the Metropolitian Museum (Margarita #1)

Artist

Lynn Davis

Physical Description

An interesting composition, rather than a typical portrait shot, the right side is of a man's back, facing the woman and reaching towards her. The woman, wearing a short haircut and a black and white dress looks up to him. Due to the pair's dress, they are possibly at a formal event, also suggested by the pole and velvet rope seen in the bottom left corner.
