What else was happening in the world when the original painting was created? The hadsburgs defeat the Ottoman Empire, Siege of Pyongyang, Long War breaks out in Hungary...
What is the artist's intent?
What leads you eyes around the photo?
Describe your lighting set up? Where were the light(s) in relation to your model? The light was on the models right, taller than her and shining down. Another soft box was placed to the models left, lower down, and shining upward.
What, if any, problems did you encounter? How did you handle it? At first there was too much shadow on the models left side of the face, so to handle this I put another light (the soft box) on her left.
What did you learn through this process about lighting?
