I had to squint at it to make the image pop, but it's a great puzzle, Kristen!
#2: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 12, 2012 [SPOILER]
Milady has lily-white skin, and milord is holding her hand as he kisses it. :)

You said it Tom! Thanks Kristen!

after initial line logic:

edge logic on the 4 clue in r9 to dot c13-14 and line logic solves it out
no guessing
nice puzzle

Very nice image Kristen,easily recognizable.:)
#9: Nancy (nbarsi) on Mar 12, 2012 [SPOILER]
Milady's hand was the hardest part for me, I kept trying to make it look like a man doffing his cap. Fun challenge, Kristen.
#10: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Mar 13, 2012

Nicely designed puzzle, Kristen. Quite a challenge to solve.

I love chivalry, like having my guy get the door for me. But I think I'd draw the line at hand kissing. I'm afraid I would be wondering to myself, "Did he wash his hands after he used the bathroom?" :-D

Maybe I would start wearing gloves.
#14: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 15, 2012 [SPOILER]
The lily-white hands could also be kid gloves. :)
#15: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Mar 15, 2012
hmmmm Kristen and lilys
#16: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Mar 15, 2012 [SPOILER]

#17: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Mar 15, 2012

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by jan.
#21: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Dec 24, 2013 [HINT]
After ll, I used smile logic on the 4 in r9 and the 3,2 in r10. Then ll to finish.

Kudos to you for keeping it truly proper -- the man's lips are never supposed to actually contact the lady's hand....
