Velvet, Wine, and the Truth of the Night
In the dimmed glow of the "Red Salon," Frau Katzenblum enjoyed the silence of the backroom, while the amber radiance of the whiskey in her glass played with the warm, sparse light of the few existing lamps. Guided only by available light, her contours merged gently with the deep shadows of the surroundings into a scene of pure intimacy. The heaviness of the old furniture and the omnipresent deep red formed a space in which she moved with a calm, almost meditative elegance. It was a silent dialogue between model and room, captured in the genuine mood of the moment that only existing light can draw so authentically.
