Jane Eyre by Ruadh DeLone is a collection of eerie, emotion-filled and somber-expression photographs.

The young muse and main subject of the photographs is an adolescent girl dressed in Victorian-era attire. In a majority of these somberly sad photographs, the young model is seen crying, notwithstanding the fact that she has almost no expression on her face. She appears to be in an intensely deep thought and has completely disconnected herself from reality. The girl's eyes stare intently at whoever is viewing the photograph in an almost unsettling way, forcing people to escape the awkwardness by averting their eyes.

While viewing these photographs you will ache to understand the context of this girl's sadness.
