From the Getty Museum record
Studio portrait of the poet and playwright Ntozake Shange. She wears all black with patterned beadwork covering her wide sleeves, and sits with her hands in her lap and her eyes half closed and looking downward. The blurred image of her head from her movement is visible over one shoulder, and blurred reflections from small electric lights create a luminous aura that surrounds her.
