At 19 × 7.6 inches, the long, narrow form draws the viewer toward the quiet space between the figures, where shadow, gold, stone, and breath seem to meet. The scale is not small in feeling, but close in spirit: a threshold of attention suited to private contemplation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1396\" data-end=\"1746\"\u003eI returned again and again, sketching, watching, waiting for the light to become more than illumination. The image was made on large-format black-and-white film, using long exposure and classical chiaroscuro to preserve the hush of the gallery.
