i thought it might be too kahlo-esque
i absolutely know what you mean (uha, i say that all the time today
)
i'm sure it is because of the limited ways to express yourself in commercial photography then...as you said.
on the one hand that's what we appreciate about it since it's very simple but qualitative work on the other hand it wipes out the differences...
though i must say i find that schiaparelli picture very modern in it's easiness,
when i first saw it as a thumbnail somewhere i thought it was maria carla by ruven afanador
