Photographic image by Adolf de Meyer of Dolores
[Sotheby’s catalogue Feb. 2006] This photograph was reproduced in the May 1, 1919, issue of Vogue with the following caption: ‘Eager-eyed from under her bridal veil, she gazes in the fortune-telling crystal, hoping to see her dreams there in the clear yet mystery-filled glass. Fastening the draping veil of rose point lace are jeweled wings of platinum set solidly with diamonds and only Cartier could have devised the flexible setting.’
Clairvoyant
Clear sighted
Vision seeker
Crystal ball gazer
What do you see?
So long ago
Did your dreams come true?
That’s a really good question. Although I’m happy with my life the way it is, when I look back I can see I wasn’t very clairvoyant about my future.

I don’t think any of us are. Life has a way of turning out in all different ways. I like surprises so I guess it is just fine the way it is. Wouldn’t it be boring if we knew what was going to happen all the time?
