(image: a light skinned person sitting with their elbows resting on their knees.  the shot is cropped above their elbows and their legs are splayed. the focus of the shot is under their very feminine, pink and red, lace and silk skirt.  it’s an expensive looking lounge room in miniature, with a plushly upholstered red couch and armchair set, an oval rug, a small round side table, and a tiny landscape picture in an ornate gilt frame.)
