Description from the seller
NOIR ÉLAN
Limited Edition 1/30
A study in power, seduction and sculptural beauty, this photograph places a woman and a black doberman skulpture in an intimate, almost dreamlike encounter.
The deep black tones, glossy surfaces and striking silver collar create a world of controlled darkness and refined luxury. Her calm, direct gaze contrasts with the imposing presence of the Doberman, creating a tension that feels both sensual and mysterious. The image blurs the boundaries between fashion, fantasy and desire, presenting strength and elegance as two sides of the same visual language.
The artwork is produced as a strictly limited edition of only 30 numbered copies worldwide.
The edition offered in this auction is:
1/30
Ilford Galerie Smooth Pearl paper, a premium fine art photographic paper.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Alexander Smith is a contemporary photographer exploring the space between fashion, sensuality and fine art. His work is centred around the human figure and its relationship with the surrounding environment, using light, colour, texture and architectural form as essential elements of the composition.
Rather than treating the female body simply as a subject, Smith uses it as part of a broader visual narrative. His photographs often balance sensuality with elegance, intimacy with strength, and human form with geometric and architectural structures.
His work is driven by a desire to create images that remain visually compelling beyond the initial impression — photographs with atmosphere, character and a distinct cinematic quality.
