Talk:The Hangover (Suzanne Valadon)

Issues and errata

 * "This bias against women in the artworld was not unique to Lautrec but was symptomatic of institutional classism and misogyny in French society as a whole." I temporarily removed this sentence for several reasons, mostly because I misplaced the source that directly supports it. I will add it back in at a later date with another citation, hopefully.

 * Need to make the source to syphilis explicit. There’s an enormous amount of literature on this, so it’s easy to do.
 * Patient of doctors Péan and Frédéric Baumgarten
 * More could be said about the green fairy, as the painting appears to also have a green cast to it, so there is likely a relationship.
 * Should mention the nature of his injury in more detail.
 * "He fractured his right femur at the age of 13, and his left at the age of 14. This made him unable to participate in the usual activities of men his age, so he took up an interest in art and illustrations. His legs never grew properly after that, producing a 4 feet 11 inches (1.50 m) adult "
 * Should briefly mention his series of strokes and previous battles with alcohol-related hallucinations.
 * Move Montmartre addresses out of captions and inline
 * Done. Viriditas (talk) 01:04, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * More could be said about the hosting museums for the sketch and drawing
 * René Princeteau should be worked into the background
 * Biographer Julia Frey's comments about how Lautrec viewed prostitutes (and other women) is at odds with others who cite Jane Avril as saying he viewed and treated them as equals. It is not clear which is true. I am considering adding both views.  Frey, in fact, takes a decidedly negative view, describing his brothel works as a means for him to control, dominate, and seduce women.  This is at odds with what Avril and others say.
 * Looking closer at Frey, she vacillates in some parts, and considers both views.
