Comments:
I don’t know who these women are, where they are located, or what they are doing. The scene looks European to me. In fact, it has the feel of a tourist photo about it. But I could be completely wrong. It was among a bunch of assorted photos, and I haven’t found another that would give it context. Does the table behind them indicate a celebration, or perhaps that they are hanging out in front of a dining establishment? What do we make of the flowers at their feet, one bouquet in a sort of jug and the other in a glass water pitcher? Are these women waiting for something, or just whiling away the time?
Interesting. They look like 5 sets of Russian dolls. They each could easily fit at least two other women inside them! The third and fourth look to be sisters. Maybe they all are?
OMG, you are too funny!
Ha! Funny idea. 🙂
