Talk:Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau

Not an expatriate
She went to Franc as a child and grew up there; that does not make her an expatriate- which implies an adult's choice. She likely identified as French and Parisian.Parkwells (talk) 19:48, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Headers and context
Added headers and more to Lede. Article needs more content about what made the portrait shocking. She posed for leading artists, but that does not make her an "artist's model", which was considered low class and outré. Article needs more of social context for readers to understand the society.Parkwells (talk) 19:48, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
