EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Portrait of Lillian Marco Englys" we are transported back in time to the year 1889, where we catch a glimpse of an extraordinary woman whose body is adorned with intricate tattoos. This remarkable portrait captures the essence of Lillian Marco Englys, a trailblazer who defied societal norms and embraced her unique self-expression. Every inch of Lillian's body serves as a canvas for her personal story, showcasing the artistry and symbolism behind each tattoo. As we examine this photograph closely, we are drawn to the meticulous details etched onto her skin – symbols that may hold deep cultural or personal significance. Lillian's choice to cover her entire body with tattoos challenges conventional notions of femininity and beauty during this era. Her boldness transcends societal expectations, making a powerful statement about individuality and self-acceptance. Amidst the backdrop of Rhode Island's Providence cityscape, Lillian stands confidently before us. Her attire reflects both fashion trends of the time and her own distinct style. A fashionable hat adorns her head while she dons an array of accessories such as necklaces and bracelets that further enhance her striking appearance. This portrait not only captures Lillian's physical attributes but also invites contemplation on physiological and psychological aspects related to tattooing. It prompts us to ponder questions surrounding hygiene practices and beauty treatments prevalent during that period. Burrells' masterful photography immortalizes Lillian Marco Englys' audacious spirit within this timeless image. Through his lens, he allows us to witness a moment frozen in time – one that celebrates diversity, challenges societal norms, and embraces individuality in all its forms.
