From 1902, another of Fitz Guerin's metaphorical maidens.View full size.
Wouldn't a smoke and drink be somewhat scandulous during that timeframe?
[I believe that's the point. - tterrace]
Very, very beautiful girl. I looked at this photo many times during last 3 years and still like it. There is some kind of mystery, or I don't know what is it.
PS. This girl could be today about 125 years old (if it could be possible)
This is a wonderful picture, her delicate pose and alluring smile make her very elegant despite the informal dress. I am fascinated by the styles from the turn of the century, with the long flowing hair and dresses... quite a contrast to the Victorian look. This reminds me very much of the women painted by Maxfield Parrish. I used to have a number of Parrish prints in my apartment years ago in my single days, and often received compliments from female visitors on the nice artwork. Who knew that I would get positive responses from women for adorning my place with pinups? This photo would fit right in. The calendar idea is a great one.
Beautiful young lady.
And, a smoke and a drink doth not a polluter and/or a glutton make, necessarily.
This photo is a true representation of America...
for the previous Twentieth Century.
Miss Gluttony and Pollution!
That girl looks to be about 15 years old! Rein it in, guys!
I think this photo shows great intrest in the historical time line for me
I'd buy a "Girls of Guerin" calendar myself. That would look just awesome on the office wall...
A cigarette is just a cigarette...
what a naughty party girl. Thankfully she's not showing any of that scandalous ankle. That would just push the public over the edge.
[True. But what about those elbows? Provocatively bare! - Dave]
