I really like your perspective. I am tired of looking at paintings that depict nothing more than a "resemblance" to someone else's. Now, it seems anyone can slap some oil on canvas and make a quick buck, but it takes talent and confidence to make artwork unique. Good job and good luck.

Yes, I do know her story. It's terrible, how she is now. I assume you saw the follow-up picture they took?

well the story to her is that she was 12 in that picture (painting) and then a bunch of guys (older men) fell in love with her because her eyes are so mesmerising i think...and then maybe 20?years later a photographer went back and found her and took annother picture of her and she looks terrible! she was only 25-35 in the second picture (she doesnt know her reeal age) but she looks so bad because of the terrible life she was living. anyone who hasnt seen the 2 pictures should look for them its incredible.

thanks for all your input also, if i got anything wrong about the girl please correct me thanks

Nope, you got it right. Actually, though, another woman was claiming to be her. But they examined her eyes and it wasn`t. They found the real girl later, but it ook them a couple days to see her because men other than her family aren`t allowed to see her without her husband`s permission.
She yes, she looked awful. `She wouldn,t let them take a picture of her for a new issue of national geo showing her face... so they covered her up completely.
