The image above is an edited version of a full image which can be seen by following the link in the caption. The image is constructed from elements captured in two different photo shoot over the past few weeks. It is inspired by a sculpture in the Musee D’Orsay called La Jeune Tarentine, itself inspired by a poem by Andre Chenier. The poems tells the story of a girl lost at sea on her way to be married, mourned by Thetis, her husband to be.
