“The iconic photograph of Leila Khaled, the picture which made her the symbol of Palestinian resistance and female power, is extraordinary in many ways: the gun held in fragile hands, the shiny hair wrapped in a keffiah , the delicate Audrey Hepburn face refusing to meet your eye.”
(The Guardian - 26 January 2001)
Super awesome picture but I don’t see anything fragile or delicate about her. Kind of a bs description.
