About the Item

The beautiful Actress Cynthia Erivo photographed in Side Profile, by Mark Seliger. All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and created by the artist. The collector gallery also provides the collector with a certificate of authenticity from the The black-and-white composition highlights Cynthia Erivo’s sharp, elegant profile, with her closely cropped, textured hair adding a sculptural effect. She is dressed in a tailored black blazer over a crisp white shirt, creating a contrast that enhances the timeless and sophisticated aesthetic of the image. Her jewelry, including a distinctive nose ring and multiple earrings, particularly an intricate feather-like ear cuff, adds a bold and personal touch. The lighting is expertly balanced to emphasize the contours of her face, from her high cheekbones to the graceful slope of her jawline. Her expression is poised, strong, and introspective, exuding confidence and artistry. The monochrome palette enhances the image’s depth, making it feel both classic and contemporary—hallmarks of Seliger’s portrait photography. The forward-leaning posture adds a dynamic quality, as if she is in motion, yet completely in control. Cynthia Erivo is a British actress, singer, and songwriter known for her powerful performances on stage and screen. She won a Tony, Grammy, and Emmy for her role as Celie in The Color Purple and earned Oscar nominations for Harriet (2019), where she played Harriet Tubman. On TV, she portrayed Aretha Franklin in Genius: Aretha. Erivo is also a celebrated musician, releasing her debut album Ch. 1 Vs. 1 in 2021. Set to star as Elphaba in Wicked, she continues to push artistic boundaries with her bold fashion, advocacy, and transformative performances. From the Olympus of the music industry to the Oscar portrait studio - Mark Seliger's oeuvre is a tribute to art and pop culture in modern America. Starting as a magazine photographer who went on to shoot over 100 Rolling Stone covers, Seliger is known for his meticulously planned portraits. Whether highly conceptual or intuitive, his photographs of David Bowie, Nirvana, or the Rolling Stones radiate an intellectual coolness. Seliger's portraits walk the fine line between hyper-reality and surrealism, revealing a sense of honesty that's unique in celebrity photography. His work stands out for combining technical precision with an almost painterly attention to composition and lighting.
