Gypsy might be a tad unfair, as most Romanies(the true gypsies) are a clean nomadic race of people that are spread throughout Europe.
Having said that it's a good image!

...they even bear "wild type genes"as they have not mixed their bloods with other "peoples". That said above means that they bear "pure genes"...They are a "pure race"even I don't like word "race". Gypsies are very useful and interesting to study in the field of "population genetics"...Soory for my boring words

Thank you for your comments, and your words are certainly not boring Giulio. There was no slur intended on Gypsies.....as you can imagine, living in poverty in a Victorian city would have made it a challenge to anyone to maintain any level of cleanliness. This particular character's role included reading palms and tarot cards and whether she considered herself to be a true Romany or a charlatan making a bit of money from gullible people I don't actually know.
