A luminous portrait by Kehinde Wiley depicting Rahsaan Gandy rendered in delicate watercolor and oil wash on aquaboard, blending the artist's signature grandeur with an ethereal, fluid quality.

The translucent layering of the medium lends the work a luminous depth, bridging classical portraiture traditions with a distinctly contemporary vision.
