I just came across this article by Laura T. Coffey which made it to the MSN webpage today.
Many have perhaps seen this photo at one point or another.

The woman in the photo happens to be Ninalee Craig and, as stated above, the photographer was Ruth Orkin. Both were young single girls who travelled Europe alone post World War II in 1951. Coffey's piece encases Ninalee's recollection of their adventures. A very delightful read for fellow travel enthusiasts.
