She's showing a lot of skin and you colored it perfectly Rob.
She looks pleased. She is probably thinking of Pyramus her lover.
They say their love affair was the basis for Romeo and Juliet.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

"...If I could read your mind love
What a tale your thoughts could tell"

As mentioned by Tick, she loved Pyramus and would trade messages with him via a crack in the wall separating their two family homes.

You handled the colorization perfectly, again, but i very impressed with the light coming on her left side (our right side).

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Sexy and Sultry, is how I see this. The unruly hair centers the eye on her face and expression.

When I was a kid, traveling carnivals that came through our town (late 50's-early 60's) would have a cluster of standing arcade machines that would show an individual a slideshow of scantily clad women for a quarter, then pop out a postcard of one of them at the end. Some neighbor kids copped cash from their parents' house money stash and spent hours at these arcades. I later saw a few of the postcards and they looked just like this... photos from the Victorian era, titillating young boys 60 and 70 years later. It's taking many hundreds of years for men to even slow down on their exploitation of women, and it's refreshing to see the current trend where women are saying they've had enough... and are able to do something about it.

The light is sensational in this capture, and the colorization is perfect. Interesting, and actually a unique photo.
