Kore.

Kore -- Greek for maiden or young girl. According to legend, after her abduction by Hades, Kore was transfomed into Persephone, queen of the underworld, mistress of the labyrinth, dazzling brilliance, she who destroys the light. Her name was not safe to speak aloud. Persephassa is an older, archaic form of the name, which suggests pre-Hellenic orgins. In Rome she was called Proserpina. Additionally, a kore is a classical Grecian statue characterized by an androgynous image and an enigmatically alluring smile.

There is no need to make a polaroidlift, it works even better like this.
