has the prior work (my comment there also points to the first 5 artist info URLs; the last has a bit about this work as well). I couldn’t find any speculation as to who Suzanne (pregnant in the painting) was. The artist married in 1873, and his wife may have been pregnant (his sculptress daughter Jean René was born 4/21/1881), when this was done; but, her name was Mette, not Suzanne. Perhaps the artist made up the name.

Once they told her the true nature of the band, she wished she’d studied the bass instead.

Why do all the women painted long ago have small, um, chests, even though the rest of them is chunky. Didn’t they have Anita Ekbergs back then?
