This is based on Lisette Model’s black and white photograph, “Woman with Veil, San Francisco, 1949”.

Thirty years after taking this photograph of a stranger seated on a park bench in San Francisco, Lisette Model said, “it was the only photograph I ever wanted to take in colour.”

Indeed. When I saw the photo, I liked her expression and what she was wearing. It seemed so colorful and eccentric.
