She's an absolute knockout, and the pose is perfect. The only thing that I've got issue with is the blouse. My Grandma used to cover every inch of her wooden furniture with doilies. I'm not sure if you have these in the USA, but they are sort of ornamental mats made from cotton. It's like she's stitched together a few dozen doilies (although since she doesn't appear to be wearing anything on underneath, I really ought not to complain).

Yes, we do know of "doilies" in the States. (Funny sidelight from my travels: there was a fussy cloth on the top-back of sofas, an equally old-fashioned thing. Well, visiting Malaysia some years ago, I drove along the Malacca Strait to the town of Makassar -- and read in the guide that it was the origin of a once-popular hair grease, and the things on the sofas were called "anti-Makassars" for the obvious reason!)

I enjoyed your idea that her blouse could have been made of doilies -- as well as your thought that she had on nothing under the doilies!
