Ophelia
A hauntingly beautiful depiction of the tragic Shakespearean heroine, rendered in Richter's signature style that blurs the boundary between photography and painting. Soft, dreamlike layers of color and texture evoke the melancholy stillness of Ophelia's fate, capturing both her fragility and otherworldly grace. The work invites contemplation on themes of loss, femininity, and the ephemeral nature of life.
