What was she thinking as the operator was affixing her likeness to this sixth plate? We will never know, but we are left with nearly 170 years later is an image that has stood the test of time. The lines of the composition are stunningly beautiful and carefully thought out. I happen to love the flow of her outer garment flows in a similar manner as the curves of the shape of the brass mat.
