Description: It is very difficult to find hair art pictures that depict an actual person mourning in them. In this picture, the artist has used blonde (also unusual) and brown hair to create a moving image of a woman grieving at her daughter's tomb. On the tomb is written, "Precious remains of my daughter". The hair work is on glass and the frame is ebony wood. Note the blue sky in the background.
