Another girl, reading


A girl, sitting alone in a theatre and lost in a book, unaware of anything else, a picture which I think will strike a chord for any avid reader.  Is she there waiting for a performance?  Is she a member of staff for the theatre who has found a quiet place and a comfortable seat for her break?

The photographer who took the picture in 1995 was Marco Borggreve.  He is a Netherlands based photographer who specialises in classical music subjects.  Maybe the girl is a musician?

This is a post for Postcard Friendship Friday hosted on Beth Niquette's blog The Best Hearts are Crunchy.

  1. I really like this postcard. When I was young--that would have been me sitting there engrossed in a book to the exclusion of the setting. lol

    Happy PFF!

  4. That could be me, too! I love it, Sheila.
    Btw, are you going on a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela? I would love to hear about your trip there. My husband is very keen on taking me there one day. Enjoy your holiday!

  5. What a lovely picture - nothing is sweeter than being so wrapped up in whatever you are doing that you are oblivious to the world. I find my quilting does that to me much of the time.
