This is a very pretty picture of than-young rock stud Mick Jagger and his beautiful girlfriend Marianne Faithfull.
They were both in the first bloom of youth, famous music stars and privileged with wealth, fame and mass adoration that will soon turn into all sorts of police arrests, media witch hunt and scandals that will eventually push Faithfull out of the picture for a while. By some magic she not only survived but lived on to became very much respected artist who occasionally enjoys her own notoriety. I read her interviews and between the lines feel that she understands that her myth and "bad girl" image makes her interesting to people, so although she can't escape constant digging trough long-gone scandals (which must be very frustrating as she makes music, after all) sometimes she mentions it herself and drops anecdotes and names, just for her own entertainment. I am still waiting for the news about her filmed biography which hopefully will happen while she is still around to enjoy this potential revival of interest in her.
