An ink-wash portrait of twentieth-century prima donna Maria Callas by Diana Denny. The artwork's ink-wash style is monochrome and represents Callas in a profile view, smirking slightly at her viewers.
Callas remains one of the most well-known prima donnas, praised for both her bel canto-style soprano vocals and often critiqued in the public eye for her private life.
