A high quality grounded tight, medium-close professional very crisp portrait of a medieval attractive mid twenties woman, focused on her face and head. She is the quintessential example of medieval fantasy makeup. Her head is turned slightly to the left, but she is looking directly at the camera with a calm and serious expression. She has light, reddish-blonde hair pulled back tightly, with a fine, gold, wire-mesh or lace headdress held in place by a dark band. Her facial features are sharp and classical, with prominent cheekbones, a straight slender nose, and an almond shaped jawline. Her eyes are a striking blue, and her eyebrows are thin and lightly colored, but completely natural. Her cheeks have a soft, pinkish-red rouge, and her lips are painted with lip rouge - offering a slightly darker lip color with a sheen that does not obscure the texture of the lips. She has fruit wax applied to her facial skin giving a subtle characteristic authentic sheen that shows her natural skin texture. She is wearing a dark, reddish-brown garment with a ruffled, high collar. The background is a very dark, indistinct brown and black, like a portrait or studio composition. The lighting is soft but dramatic, with a bright source coming from the left, highlighting the contours of her face and the texture of her headdress. The picture is captured in a dark studio void with rich colors and a black background. She has a small mouth, and soft jaw, and is vaguely pretty.
