A Beauty

A Beauty
Sir John Everett Millais - 1856. Location unknown.

Millais is most famous for his painting of The Two Princes Edward and Richard in the Tower – but I found this unknown beauty much more appealing. She seems to be plaiting her hair; something I do myself every day these days.

The photo, however, is from the days in Hong Kong when I used to wear my hair loose a lot of the time – probably 1994 or 1995, taken at one of the many fountains in the squares and courts of the city.
