Of Models and Mistresses...

Just a little something I found today at the thrift store…

The Journal of Eugene Delacriox

Without question the most important intimate record by a great artist since the Notebook of Leonardo De Vinci. And in one retrospect it surpasses that classic, for it includes a fascinating revelation of Delacroix’s personal life-of his love affairs , of his models and mistresses, of his dealings with with friends and enemies, and of the hopes and aspirations by which he was motivated.
