Inscribed in French: "A ma meilleure amie Hélène, / ceci en souvenir d’une jeune parisienne / en regardant cette / photo pense quelquefois / […] et aux bons moments / [...] nous ensemble à Reims – / 20 Avril 1903 / Loéline Adam." Some of the inscribed words are cut off along the edge, so part of the message is missing. But I suppose this is enough to spark your imagination. {click image to view larger}
Some interesting photography:
* portraits by Hellen van Meene
* on the streets with Vivian Maier (via Chris Storb)
* and a little voyeurism. . .
Have a good weekend.

What a beautiful photograph, and of such a lovely young lady. So romantic and ethereal. Surely the work of a master photographer. Thank you for posting it. Reggie
Breathtaking! Where ever did you find this? She is poetry. KDM
