    That she is. The angle results in a powerful, sorta-disturbing perspective. I can’t look away from this fantastic photo!

    She’s looking a little shiny… time to powder her face. Where was this? I know it’s *wordless*, but I’d love to know more.

    I’m half-convinced it’s a he in drag, actually, but she’s in Addis airport. There are far more interesting examples in Addis that looked like they dated to the fascist occupation (even this one would look at home in Mussolini’s Rome) but I never managed to get a shot of one.

    Great piece, and perfect lighting. Does she date from the 50s or 60s? Or is she a more modern piece?

    the closeup of the mannequin is strangely disturbing. I have one of the head of a mannequin placed on a camera stand soomewhere on my blog. lol.

    Her face has me thinking of the 1980s. I have Duran Duran songs running through my brain right now.
