- Description
- A black and white photographic print portrait of Kelli, captured at the Legends Ball in Jersey City, New Jersey in June 1994. Kelli is pictured in the center of the image dressed in a black suit jacket over an exposed black bra with short hair styled in finger waves and a cigarette held between closed lips. She looks up, directly at the camera. Slightly out of focus behind her is the interior room furnished with a couch, ottoman, and an end table with picture frames. Kelli's shadow appears on the back wall. There are no inscriptions, front or back.
