“The illustration was created for the Tor.com short story ‘La beauté sans vertu,’ written by Genevieve Valentine. The story revolves around the trends of high-fashion models in the future, such as the surgical removal and replacement of a model’s arms with more-youthful ones from dead teenage girls. In the painting, hints of a seam are found on the model’s shoulders, and her fingertips possess a dark purple color.”
