    A prostitute in the 1870s. Can't imagine how hard her life must have been.
  • bensonklemme said:
    eh she was probably trying to just get herself through college
  • MsMarchHare said:
    As a widow she likely turned to prostitution to feed her family
  • Laura said:
    Not a very successful prostitute maybe...
  • kmeccat said:
    a 34 yr old widow...probably several kids to feed. Not many options left to her until she could get another husband.

    Excelente retrato!!
  • A.Davey said:
    How very sad.
  • optimal chicken said:
    I agree with Alan. Her face is both haunting and hurt. Look closer and her skin is poor - a sure sign of incorrect diet - she's clearly thin too. Desperate times and she had to fight to survive..
  • Wayne Hill said:
    Supply and demand, she survived.
