October 2009

Beyond the Boughs

While not sent specifically in celebration of Halloween, it strikes me that this lady is quite prepared for Samhain festivities.

Turkish Woman, 1909

This modern reproduction comes from Levant Koleksiyon, a little art and framing shop in the Beyoğlu section of Istanbul, Turkey.

Oh, Just Out for a Stroll

It’s so cold in GirlZoot’s neck of the woods that its impossible to imagine this type of sunbathing, even with this visual aid.

Belgrade Women

This postcard (from Zhanna, herself a Belgrade woman) struck me as an oddity, and not only because it is my first card from Serbia.

Yes, I Feel Wonderful Today

Klaudia sends this pretty girl from Poland, with the idea that it was a little joke on me.

Sacrificio

The doomed maiden rests in the arms of what appears to be an Aztec god, and is clearly overjoyed about it. Her honeymoon, perhaps?

Geographical Fun with England

This depiction of Brittania — the symbol of British strength and beauty — is meant to be Queen Victoria.

Mexican Calendar Girls: “Flores”

One can’t help but admire Drechsler’s work here; his depiction of this woman is everything a man could want and, unfortunately, more.

Creative People Seek the Silver Lining

A pretty girl is a pretty girl, even if she looks like she’s on her way to have dinner with the Tin Man.

Nice Tan

Kim in the Netherlands sends this bikini girl along, hoping that she’s pretty enough for you — er, I guess she means me.
