Victorian Lady Reading - Historical Fashion Illustration #3527583 (License: Personal Use)

The illustration depicts a woman in late-Victorian fashion-her hair styled in an elegant updo, lips painted red, and wearing a richly detailed off-the-shoulder gown with layered ruffles and a fitted bodice. She holds a small brown book, her eyes gently closed as if savoring the words or lost in reflection. The clean line art and soft earth-toned palette evoke nostalgia and sophistication.
