Louise Brooks in the 1920s

Louise Brooks in 1927 and my design based on my photo of the light reflection on the wall causing by a translucent candlestick.

One of the most famous photo of the Old Hollywood actress Louise Brooks was talent by the photographer Eugene Robert Richee in 1929.

She is wearing a long pearl necklace ; her black dress and black hair melt towards the black background. Only the white pearls and the face of Louise Brooks stand out from the dark.
