I believed it also because , a bit more than a year ago , I discovered your blog , and in it a very beautiful portrait of a young lady with a red hat ,in a red background ( of Max Svabinski ) and I thought it looked like my daughter , and eveybody thinks so too ... Another funny thing ...
So , thanks for that too .... And if you have more info about the lady , I would be thrilled to know !!!
