A large, black and white portrait artwork is displayed on a light-colored wall in the city of Şişli, Turkey. The artwork depicts a person, shown from the mid-chest upwards, with their head tilted sharply upwards and backwards, eyes closed or heavily shadowed. The subject has dark skin, rendered in deep grayscale, providing high contrast for the prominent, textured lips which appear to have a metallic or highly reflective finish. An intricate, multi-strand beaded or chain headpiece covers the scalp and forehead, with fine strands draped across the eye area. The subject is adorned with elaborate, glittering jewelry: large, flower-shaped dangling earrings with multiple parallel strands of small, reflective stones on each ear, and a multi-strand choker-style necklace with a central, prominent flower pendant from which multiple strands of small, reflective stones also dangle. All jewelry components are rendered in bright whites and grays, indicating numerous detailed, faceted stones. The background within the artwork is solid black, emphasizing the subject and jewelry. The overall artwork is vertically oriented and contained within a thin, light-colored frame.
