This striking poster blends classical and surreal aesthetics, with Mia Goth styled like she stepped out of a Baroque oil painting. The composition is almost sculptural—elements seem placed in shallow “painting depth” rather than deep photographic space. Every layer feels intentional, from the lightning in the background to the slight texture on her fan.

Color-wise, it’s a peach-pink skin tone against cool blues and stormy greens—a textbook split complementary harmony. The saturation of the dress makes it feel theatrical, but the overall tonality keeps it elegant and grounded. A haunting and beautiful palette for a haunting and beautiful reimagining.
