Happy International Women's day

I'm very fond of this portrait and am very lucky to see it regularly. 'The Duchess' film didn't really explore the many sides of Georgiana, she was a fascinating woman with a good degree of tragedy and heartache in her life, like many of us. I have a soft spot in my heart for her.

    What a stunning portrait! I did not realize how large it was until they showed it at the very end being carried. Wow. ~Robin~
