Peter Beard

Carole Bouquet, NYC

A striking gelatin silver print by Peter Beard featuring French actress and model Carole Bouquet, captured in New York City with Beard's signature visceral aesthetic. The work is enhanced with blood, a haunting embellishment the artist famously incorporated into his photographs as a raw, organic mark-making element. The result is a powerful fusion of glamour and primal energy, blurring the boundary between portraiture and personal artistic ritual.
