From t.degroot@inter.nl.net:
A truly classic example of absence, which everybody will recognize. Which doesn't mean it is wrong! Imo, you have done a fair job to convey the concept and Victoria is radiating dejection (if not rejection)! The lush paintings on the wall are an interesting contrast to the general feeling.
The wood textures are a bit flat to my taste. They could be made more interesting, and in better harmony with the scene.
