J'aime beaucoup ce double portrait. Je suis toujours très "touchée" quand je croise une de ces femmes qui a voué sa vie au Christ et sous totale clôture.
Beau nb aussi.

A wonderful portrait, it has such a Spanish quality for me a reminder of my young years in Spain. From the look of the younger nun to the framing it is a powerful shot. Perfecto Pablo.

A wonderful study in so many ways, Francisco. Both of their expressions reveal something - yet so much not as well. The detail. The geometry. An excellent photograph.
