  2. She is so completely splendid. She looks like she's just delivered a one-liner to William Walton.

    That expression! And that hat! She could be sitting inside a daffodil.

  3. I love everything about this photograph... her expression, the folds of fabric, the lines in her hands, the white-gray, the bonnet. Happy Easter! ox

  5. When I first saw pictures of Edith Sitwell (in an anthology book of early Vanity Fairs that my mother owned) as a child, she terrified me. Then I grew up and began to think differently. That being said, this picture -- even though it's light-filled and she's dressed in white -- reminds me why I formed my first impression. Powerful. Happy Easter. Curtis Roberts
