tales make us believe in a happy ending, and the fact that its heroes "has since lived happily ever after."
However, Canadian photographer Dina Goldstein (Dina Goldstein,) decided to rebel against this idea and bring a large share of the ending of reality known fairy tales, creating a series of photos "Fallen Princesses" ("Fallen Princess").
The photographs show that Snow White, Princess Jasmine and Pocahontas caught cruel fate, and after the wedding, they waited for an unhappy marriage, cancer and alcoholism.
To create these images, Dean inspired her daughter Jordan, who at the age of 3 years old interested princesses.At the same time, his mother Dina was diagnosed with breast cancer.
"These two events coincided, and I wondered, would look like a princess, if they had to fight the disease, financial difficulties or aging," - said Goldstein."They would have to face the difficulties faced by all modern women."
itself Dean grew up in Israel and knew nothing about the Disney princesses.When she met them, she found the idea discriminatory.
