Reminds me of Queen Victoria, whom we always picture as a white-haired dowager, but who is shown as quite attractive in her younger portraits.
One of the *most* fascinating biographies I’ve *ever* read was about this woman. Wow….. Great to see her here today!
I had no idea she was Catherine the Great. Thanks for sharing it!
Some one I’ve heard a lot about and identified with but never seen a portrait of thank you.
Young, attractive, with a slight smile. Thanks for sharing!
