In this painting there is a woman in a white dress sitting on a floral couch with a brown background. She has brown hair in a bun and a cat perched on her shoulder. Sita and Sarita was painted by Cecilia Beaux in 1893. To recreate this photo I placed a floral sheet on my couch and had my sister be my model. I took a second white sheet and put it around her like a dress and then I took a doily and put it around her neck to make the lace patterns in the dress. Next I grabbed some tinfoil to make her ring and put her hair in a bun. I positioned her then called over my dog to act as the cat. It took a while to get the positioning right but once I had it right I took the picture.
