The colorization here is so incredibly well selected, it's almost as if you were in a time warp and was there for the photo. It is perfect for this capture. Your work gives us insight and tweaks our curiosity. Favorite.

She has a Native American or early Pioneer Woman look about her Rob. I can't help but notice her shawl/robe is tattered and torn. She looks proud.
Great colorization.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

She (The Image) has the look of of old Monarch 'Queen Victoria. .. The same look and hairstyle from that part of history. Good work again.

I'm not sure about her ethnicity being native and I don't see any tatters other than the tassel ends on that accent cord (I enlarged it a great deal in Photoshop and looked over the entire image). Her clothing, jewelry, neck tie, hair net, and even the embroidered blanket she's wearing is exactly the womens' style popular during the Civil War. The only confusion (other than what a few other people are seeing here) for me is the title. Since there's only one woman in the photo, "Webb Sisters" must be either the name of the photography company or this photo came out of an archival folder containing numerous shots of several women, all named Webb, and the archivist didn't feel like extrapolating with the cataloging. It happens; a few of the archivists
I worked with in my career were not the best at their job, unfortunately.
