Andromache was young and beautiful. Her expression is calm and disciplined. Her skin is a natural light olive-gold with visible pores, no makeup except her eyes neatly lined with fine black kohl. She wears an authentic monumental Luwian dress (kurtis): a single heavy, solid floor-length gown made of dense indigo-blue wool. The dress has seamless, tight, long sleeves that completely cover her wrists to the knuckles, with zero layered short sleeves and no modern pleated skirts. The wool fabric is thick and falls in heavy, natural vertical folds, held tightly at the waist by a wide, rigid leather belt with an engraved bronze plate featuring Luwian solar circles. On her feet are traditional Luwian leather boots with distinctive curved, upturned toes, laced tightly. Only a narrow, clean band of smooth dark hair is visible directly above her forehead, held by a rigid golden headband (ampyx). At her temples, two heavy, hollow golden spiral tubes (hair-rings) are attached to the ampyx, with tightly bound strands of her hair passing through them. The rest of her hair is tied back in a secure bun made of small braids, completely hidden at the back by a heavy dark textile veil that drapes over her shoulders like a rigid pillar. She stands inside a structured grey Troy palace room with rough limestone stone textures, in a deep moody chiaroscuro lighting
