Iris - where does it sit?

I got the help needed about where to place the genetics of this iris. Thanks
to all. To help remove an issue that came up but was not really my concern I
reshot another flower this morning in full sun. It is fresher and the color
is more vibrant whereas the earlier one was taken with flash in the evening.
I would say it is closer to 'Black Gameock' but my opinions on irid
cultivars are not to be taken seriously.

Yes indeed, and a real beauty it is. One of the most popular Louisiana
iris hybrids.

My guess would be Black Gamecock which shows a lot of Iris brevicaulis
influence for a Louisiana hybrid in flower shape and size but is much darker
and richer in color such as the photo shows.
