Vadim Pisarev, shown full-length from head to feet, standing upright in a sunlit ballet studio with a wooden barre, large mirrored wall and pale parquet floor. A mature man in his early sixties, lean and powerful with a dancer's erect posture and strong turned-out legs; angular face, high cheekbones, fair complexion, kind intense grey-blue eyes, and short neatly groomed silver-grey hair. He wears a plain fitted black long-sleeve dance top tucked into black footless tights, a soft dark belt at the waist, and black split-sole ballet slippers. One hand rests lightly on the barre, the other extended in a graceful teaching gesture, chin lifted with a warm, dignified, encouraging expression. Soft daylight falls from tall studio windows behind him, no aura or glowing effects.
