Primrose Fairy! What a precious little face she had. Love this work. Thanks for posting it! - Jeanne
Doesn't this picture look as if it could be in the current issue of 'Vanity Fair'? To my eyes, it's so fresh.

Ms. Gish looks much too peaceful to be remembering her time on the ice floes on the Connecticutt River.
