Black Tie Affair - Framed Stretched Canvas Print

This framed stretched canvas print of the painting titled "Black Tie Affair" by Antionette Simmons Hodges captures the lively atmosphere of social gatherings and formal dances in Washington D.C. during her early years there.

The central focus is on a couple embracing passionately, with the woman wearing a striking blue and yellow dress, while the man is dressed in a crisp white suit. The intimate moment is contrasted by the surrounding figures in formal attire, suggesting they are at an upscale event or cabaret.

The image showcases a diverse group of elegantly dressed individuals, with both men in sleek suits and women adorned in vibrant dresses and jewelry. The monochromatic background allows the figures and their colorful attire to take center stage, creating a sense of energy and celebration.

Through her use of bold colors and expressive brushstrokes, Hodges effectively conveys the excitement and joy associated with these formal social gatherings, where dressing to impress was part of the experience. The painting evokes a nostalgic reminiscence of the lively social scene she encountered upon moving to Washington D.C.

Perfect for adding uplifting, joyful energy and a stylish statement to any contemporary living space or gallery wall.
