About the work

Silhouette of a woman raising a lit torch in her left hand. She is seen in profile, wearing a long scarf wrapped around her head that trails down to her feet. The flame of the torch grazes the upper edge of the frame. The background is composed of alternating vertical patches of light and shadow.
