This is a very popular portrait shot of the much theologised writer Oscar Wilde. I have read him too little, to judge but nevertheless, I simply adore this sepia tainted, time lorn picture of him.
I love to watch him just sit there in his fur cloak and the handsome cane an look right back at you. Yes, I admit I have a secret crush on him (which I suppose isn't a secret anymore!)
