Other · Colour · Photo

A woman's face with pointed black horns and a dark hooded outline sits at the centre of the design, with pale green and purple smoke-like shading around it. The linework is bold and black, and the face is softly shaded in lilac and pink tones. The composition is symmetrical and fills the frame, with a sketched, watercolour-like wash fading out at the edges.

Now she stood at the end of the buffet table and took a curled ham sandwich from a plate. 'You still owe me a lantern,' she said to the caretaker, who was ninety and had been waiting his whole life for someone to say so.

He fetched it from the cupboard under the stairs. It burned with a green flame that did not flicker. She thanked him, walked out into the dark with the smoke trailing behind her like a torn flag, and the glasses on the tray chimed one by one as she passed the door.
