This turtle neck sweater and jacket on the exquisitely talented British actor Richard Armitage (below, via Isabelle, Thanks!) at the 2016 Jane Hotel in NYC photoshoot (photographed by Emilio Madrid-Kuser) really does it for me.

And the muted and balanced symmetry composition of the background–with better lighting promoting great color shadings, especially on Richard for a natural skin tone—and with him seemingly “eagerly” leaning forward and smiling, it is a dazzling portrait of him! Sighhhhh! So a very well done to the photographer Emilio Madrid-Kuser!
So when you add the holidays into the mix–as with my little edit below? Don’t you just want to have a party? For two? *THUD*

Holiday Cheers! Grati ;->
P.S. I had gushed about another of these Richard Armitage portraits at the Jane Hotel, here.

About Gratiana Lovelace
Gratiana Lovelace is my nom de plume for my creative writing and blogging. I write romantic stories in different sub genres. The stories just tumble out of me.
My resurgence in creative writing occurred when I viewed the BBC miniseries of Elizabeth Gaskell's novel North & South in February 2010. The exquisitely talented British actor portraying the male lead John Thornton in North & South--Richard Crispin Armitage--became my unofficial muse. I have written over 50 script stories about love--some are fan fiction, but most are original stories--that I am just beginning to share with others on private writer sites, and here on my blog. And as you know, my blog here is also relatively new--since August 2011. But, I'm having fun and I hope you enjoy reading my blog essays and my stories.
Cheers! Grati ;-> upd 12/18/11
