Where the two B & W portraits show only minor differences, it's completely different for the by you perfectly colorized portrait, when compared with the original B&W version.
In fact, you have brought the Bisharin girl back to life again. It's remarkable to me as well that you always find the proper color scheme. If one didn't know better, one might think that you had a colored portrait at your disposal, ☺ . If I had to do such a job, it certainly would have been a 'mission impossible'.
It proves once again that you're a very talented artist in the field of this art. Kudos, my friend!
