Lipstick Lizzie
Back in June, I blogged about a not too pretty Lizzie newspaper illustration that seemed to age her for us, making her, well, rather unattractive.
I have since found a magazine illustration from PIC Magazine from 1938 that attempts to do the opposite: make Lizzie sexy. They added makeup, I guess, a little lipstick, and sort of updated her for the 30s. It almost doesn’t look like her anymore.
This image begs the question, however: did Lizzie Borden wear makeup?
