Photo reference: Mehitabel

So, a while back, the excellent [livejournal.com profile] fidelioscabinet pointed me to Natalia Alexandrovna Pushkina as a good visual for Mehitabel Parr.

Earlier this week, I was looking at Wikipedia for something (the Golden Dawn, I think, but it might have been anything), and their main page had this picture of the 6'7" (!) Russian volleyball player, Yekaterina Gamova, and I thought, Hello, Mehitabel. (I believe it's partly the look she's giving the camera.)

And there are some similarities between Gamova and Pushkina, in the shape of the face and the angle of the eyebrows particularly. So I suspect if you did a mash-up of the two, you'd get something close to what I think Mehitabel Parr looks like.
