The suggester says, "Elizabeth Short by =SamuraiChopstick is quite simple but I just love how such a peaceful composition represents such a horrific story".

Description
Nicknamed "the Black Dahlia" with her jet-black hair, black dresses and exotic looks, small-town Massachusetts beauty queen Elizabeth Short went to Hollywood seeking stardom. In 1947, she was brutally murdered at age 22, her naked, mutilated body found hacked in two in a vacant lot.
This story always fascinated me and I've been meaning to do this piece for a while now. It ties in to my fav movie set though I didn't think the actual movie did her justice. I would have liked to know more about her, not just her death. This piece was inspired by the poster for the movie.
