Thank you -- someone else has just recommended that one to me. I don't know it, but looks good.

Ok, for anyone in the future (including me) who may be looking to this platform for an answer to this very question, the answer is it's totally normal and don't worry about it. Also, when at the machine you swipe the phone closed, not open. You are welcome.

Could you possibly give a link to this blog post @parisnoire.bsky.social ?

Ah, that's very interesting, thank you! I will definitely be looking out for your book on this (and for Summer's book).

Thank you Judith. It's a slightly unwieldy couple of threads, in fairness. I would love to hear Robin Mitchell's views on it all.

Yes, I have, thank you -- I referenced her work on Duval in my thread on this the other day and tagged @parisnoire.bsky.social in (or tried to, at least!).

Here is a close-up of the hand.

Should have said this is Manet's painting, "La Maitresse de Baudelaire". Here is the hand detail I am talking about.

Did they suspect their friend would be embarrassed by these images, were he to see them? Whatever Jeanne's motivations (money, embarrassment?), it seems clear that she is presenting, in these portraits, her own version of herself. Chapeau, Jeanne. 12/12

(Baudelaire was well known by now, so perhaps she made the sensible argument that an image of her would be worth something)? Nadar's photo has lain undiscovered for 160+ years, and Manet seems to have kept his portrait from Baudelaire's sight. 11/12
