Cléo de Mérode posa-t-elle nue pour Falguière ?

Cléo de Mérode posa-t-elle nue pour le sculpteur Alexandre Falguière ? La question ne figure pas parmi les grands sujets de l’histoire de l’art mais elle fait écho à une de ses grandes légendes, de celles qui sont à cheval entre le sublime et le caniveau. La Cléo, comme on l’appelait, était une danseuse de la Belle Époque que sa beauté iconique avait rendu immensément célèbre. Comme il n’est rien de plus croustillant qu’un éclaboussure de boue sur une étoile scintillante, le fait qu’elle eût pu poser nue pour une sculpture du Salon de 1896 avait suffi en son temps à déclencher un scandale. Bien sûr, le plus intéressant dans cette affaire n’est pas de savoir si Mlle de Mérode se montra en costume d’Ève à Falguière, mais plutôt tout ce que cette hypothèse autrefois formulée charrie d’air du temps.

La suite du texte est à lire ici, dans un long document riche en iconographie. C’est Noël, en quelque sorte.

FIN is kind of a unique case bc - other than the magician ad posters - all the art that appears in the game is also used in other games. so i won't lie, i was less motivated to put actual effort into this post.

La nuit j'invoque ton voluptueux souvenir, et je frissonne quand je t'entoure comme un serpent, et me sens serrée amoureusement, bercée par le rythme de tes sensations sur ton corps mouvant.

Lettre de Natalie Clifford Barney à Liane de Pougy, février mars 1899.

LIANE DE POUGY // COURTESAN

“She was a Folies Bergere vedette and dancer renowned as one of Paris’ most beautiful and notorious courtesans. She decided to leave her husband after he caught her in bed with her husband and shot her with a revolver, wounding her wrist. She did this by selling her rosewood piano to a young man and within an hour was on her way to Paris. She began her career as a courtesan with the Countess Valtesse de la Bigne and began a lesbian affair with writer Natalie Clifford Barney that started when Barney presented herself at her residence in a page costume and announced she was a “page of love” sent by Sappho.”
