Summary

Fashion model (identified as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Fonssagrives" class="extiw" title="en:Lisa Fonssagrives">Lisa Fonssagrives</a> with English bobby on a railway station platform. Photograph by <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/trialsanderrors/tags/tonifrissell">Toni Frissell</a> (one of the most celebrated female photographers of the 20th Century), published by Harper's Bazaar in 1951. Part of a collection gifted to the Library of Congress by Frissell. Very poor scan of a very beautiful picture. I tried my best to bring out the contrasts and remove the various artifacts, but I wish they'd clean it up and scan it again.

The United States Library of Congress identifies the location as <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:London_Victoria_station" title="Category:London Victoria station">Victoria Station</a>, London, but the station is actually <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Paddington_station" title="Category:Paddington station">Paddington</a>.
