"And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea."

The coloration and tone in this is beautiful. I wonder what it'd look like without the added liney grain? I think grain adds, but I dunno how I like the streaks. Still very nice, though.
Nice evocation of this poem, the model perfectly fits the role. I don't like the texture though, I suppose it is there to add an "old" feeling, but the parallel lines are... well, too parallel for that. Also, I would have lit the face a little bit more, so that the dress was not the brightest element, grabbing probably the attention a bit much. Great job nonetheless!
