Bettie Page - 28-08-17 by Corné Akkers combines a recognizable face with a network of rounded and angular planes. The head remains a focal point within pale sweeping forms that extend through the figure and surrounding space.
Soft gray shading models the overlapping shapes, while brighter edges divide them into separate volumes. The drawing-like detail gives the portrait a sculptural quality without losing its human presence.
