Madame there doesn’t look as if she’s up for anything as greasy and dirty as starting a power mower. Perhaps she has a servant do it for her.
What, you don’t mow your lawn in a silk dress, lipstick, and high heels?
*lawn. Thank you autocorrect.
I love a lady who keeps her “lawn” mowed.
Does the MC Escher-esque perspective of that picture bother anyone else? Look at her arms, waist, and above, and she appears to be directly behind the mower. Look at her feet and the mower’s wheels, and she appears to be walking beside it.
@ Richard: Perhaps it’s the equivalent mowing stance to that riding stance traditionally taken by female equestrians. Is the young woman mowing “sidesaddle?”
