She would only be able to feel very intense bass or low frequency vibrations. The slats of wood above served as "sounding boards", resonating to low frequencies. Helen Keller was extremely intelligent and, I might add, an atheist despite the fact she studied the Bible. Or perhaps she became an atheist because she truly studied the Bible. Not sure.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Sitting portraits, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

"Life is nothing if not a great adventure," said Helen Keller in her autobiography. What a brilliant woman to break through her disability to touch the world. Great reading.

the 1913 International Flower show related to these photos was held at the Grand central palace. Unfortunately the building was demolished and I can't find any record of the eagles. The International Flower Show, co-sponsored with the New York Florist’s Club, was the grandest of the shows produced by The Horticultural Society. It was held at Grand Central Palace from 1913 to 1953 and later at The New York Coliseum through 1970. www.hsny.org/about_history.html

I'm a little bit obsessed with ASM. Haha.

I also have to say that she is given way less credit than she should be. Where would Helen Keller have gotten without her? Exactly!

This photo is very beautiful as well. It captures the era very nicely. Her dress is so neat and I love the flowers. I have never seen a picture of the actual Helen Keller. She is lovely.

Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to graduate from college. She began writing when she was 11 years old! She was an extreme socialist and her political views were very influential.

thank you for sharing this photo. very nice.

Beautiful face and features, with an exquisite profile.

Helen Keller is one of the most influential woman in history, she is a mark of inspiration and hope for everyone thinking they can't accomplish something. This photo sticks out to me because it shows Helen Keller in a different light, it shows the feminist side to her. A lot of people just see Helen Keller as a deaf and a mute, but this picture shows her in a dress and she is wearing flowers to symbolize a soft, womanly side to her.
