The George Eastman House photostream

I stumbled upon the George Eastman House Photostream today, while looking for something else entirely. So many beautiful images. The woman in this first image had such beautiful Pre-Raphaelite eyes...

And this second one just looked like something I would wear. It's not that I wish we all dressed like this again, because despite the beauty, clothes were uncomfortable then. But I do love it when I see details and detailing with whispers of this era, come back around again.
