But had this bold and spirited beauty really descended into prostitution, drunkenness, and early death-or did her life, hidden from history, take a different course altogether? Eunice Lipton's search for the answer combines the suspense of a detective story with the revelatory power of art, peeling off layers of lies to reveal startling truths about Victorine Meurent-and about Lipton herself.Artists' modelsFranceBiographyWomen art historiansUnited StatesBiographyFeminist art criticismUnited StatesElectronic books.Artists' modelsBiography.Women art historiansBiography.Feminist art criticism759.4BLipton Eunice1049244MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452638103321Alias Olympia2478075UNINA
