Description: This is another unique, perhaps one of a kind sepia brooch.  To me, the woman appears to be pleading with the heavens.  The expression on her face is so moving.  The artist has painted this piece so skillfully that you can feel the pain and anguish of the young lady.  The setting is 9kt. rose gold.  to see other views:  6398a.jpg and 6398cl.jpg
