Torn To Pieces

Someone has treated this lady very badly. She was originally part of a grand Victorian Cabinet Card, one of what must have been a couple. She was looking at her unknown partner with eyes that stood out due to a little additional inking from the photographic studio. But then something happened, a split took place and the Cabinet Card was torn into pieces and those eyes were left to stare into nothingness.
