Sorry, I know this is out of season, but after so many dour old portraits, I wanted to share something that was simply cheery. Looking at it, I have mixed feelings about what age has done to the colors. Part of me wishes it were still showing what I assume were its original vibrant hues. But another part of me loves the nostalgia evoked by the sepia quality, and the way the sepia tones so nicely complement the purple of her dress.
Pics of Then 
This picture reminds me a bit of the shots of Lupita Nyong’o and an actor cat that have been making the news rounds recruiting:

”recently,” not “recruiting”! very weird auto”correct.”
Yes, I see what you mean.
Whatever the hues, it’s a fun and uplifting picture. When I first saw the picture I thought she was a celebrity. Although, I’ve no interest in going down an internet rabbit hole trying to figure out if that’s true.
Glad you like it. And I agree, it’s probably just a coincidence, but she reminds me of somebody, and I can’t figure out who.
