North + South or Polar Opposites

Photograph shows Martha Jane Burke (1852-1903), popularly known as Calamity Jane, standing by the grave of Wild Bill Hickok in Mt. Moriah Cemetery, Deadwood, South Dakota circa 1903. 

I've added a circa 1961 high fashion model clad in a 'Maharajah's tunic' of black dyed Southwest African Persian Lamb from an advertisement of Fifth Avenue, New York French Couturier in Fur Georges Kaplan.

I could have created a lot of polar opposites, but I liked the juxtaposition of these two women.
