Barbara Friehs - A Gentle Giant

A woman dressed entirely in black lies draped across the back of a giraffe, her posture calm and unguarded, as if resting rather than posing. The deep, dark tones of her clothing create a striking contrast against the giraffe’s warm, patterned hide and elongated form. Her body follows the gentle curve of the animal, suggesting trust, intimacy, and a quiet surrender to stillness.
