Happily Ever After?

I stumbled upon this really interesting collection. I grew up with Disney and I love fairytales. I love the grim and dark background these fairytales generally have.

Check out Dina Goldstein's "Fallen Princesses" gallery. Goldstein takes each of these princesses and set them in the modern day setting, surrounded by modern day issues; of course, with a modern day ending as well. I thoroughly enjoyed this collection of hers. It is a bit mirror-shattering... but the real world sure is tough.

What are your thoughts?

  1. interesting pictures, but modern endings don't have to be depressing, nor does realism
