B&W Sunday: Moving on

Maybe you remember my intro into Henry James’ novel The Wings of the Dove that I published in March.

Here is a B&W rendition of the photo of Kate Croy (my porcelain doll impersonating Kate Croy) that I first posted in colour. Kate was scheming and conniving and she ended up suffering more heartbreak than she had caused.

Nevertheless, strong as she is, she is dusting herself off and moving on….
