The writing on the monolith seems to translate into something like, "For those who dream...the first star that rises in their young hearts is love." Well, that is, at least, an approximation. Really wish we were fluent in the French language, but we are slowly learning. She wears the popular "mermaid" gown of the period, ornamented with bits of the "costume orientale." So charming, and so vibrantly colored. and with a background array of Art Nouveau flourishes that set its time and mood beautifully! A very nice card.
