The portrait shots rained heavily her likeness portrayed on nickels.. cast for eternity among subjects yet to be born eternal scandals stamped through state mints and issued as a special commemorative coinage struck for likeness, portrayed on ageless metal.. sighs would weigh heavily through unbroken lips pictured held up china cup..intermittent sips Chinese cups... part of the entourage? their wares are repeated...millions more exceeded dowager parties and people poses competed so portraits rain in heavily on easeled canvas a likeness at noon...yet another chiseled too soon. cast for eternal worship..alternative to faith faithful subjects to be born, subject to her state subject to scandals coined through state mints.

Martin, give me a hint at what you're trying to say? I can't get past the portraits...  |

ecrivan Your symboles are hard to read but some say to me minting the middle is not the whole story. Enjoyed the read. |

So much within the captured look, yet a distorted stillife. Perhaps it's best that the minted image cannot capture the whole story, including the gossip and scandal. |

Midnite, A lot of scandal does continue to stir behind royal mints..and never really does get into the open...or maybe one has to wait a lifetime until it does and you'd wonder what's truth and what's conjecture...this is what's here! Karilea, it's purposely confusing, isn't it..hehe..but so are the scandals that never get out! |
