Nothing Alpine, she was just overweight.

In my opinion, she doesn't look fully Gracile-Med and neither Atlanto-Med, but an intermediate between the two, Trans-Med.
Here she resembles someone of my family, I think my mom as a kid:

No, that's Montserrat Caballe when she was a kid.

Nothing fancy...

Montserrat is a very common first name in Catalunya and Caballé is a normal Catalan surname.

Context. In Brazil, for example, Montserrat is chiq. In many Mexican telenovelas they brag about being members of the Montserrat family.

Yes, its sound chiq for us. Imagine someone called Madame Montserrat, it would look like this:

His father is Catalan and his mother is Valencian. In the Spanish Levant we have prodigious voices, as well as in the south. ;)

That telenovela, "O Outro Lado do Paraíso", also had a Montserrat family, being an upper class family of Tocantins.
