This document appears to be about the French artist Jacques-Émile Blanche and his portraits of many famous writers, artists, and public figures from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It includes reproductions of some of his portraits and discusses his use of mirrors in some works, including portraits of a model named Desiree Manfred where she is depicted near or interacting with mirrors. The document questions why Blanche did not receive more recognition during his lifetime.

Je suis peut-être le seul artiste de mon âge, dont il n’existe pas la moindre monographie et que le Larousse ignore.” “Fifty years from now, the portraits of many writers and artists will be hanging in the museums; yet not single book will be written about their author. I am perhaps the only artist of my age who does not have a biography written about him, and who is ignored by Larousse” ©© art mirrors art 2014 1997 2012 2013

Une femme étrange, voilée, venait avec une enfant me proposer un modèle tel que je n’en trouverais un nulle part. On savait que j’étais en peine et que je demandais des fillettes. La pourvoyeuse fit tomber le capuchon couvert de flocons, puis la mante où s’enveloppait la petite. Je fus saisi. Cette petite n’avait point d’âge : corps menu, mais formé, un visage admirable, des yeux verts qui me rappelaient les maîtresse de Debussy ; un je ne sais quoi d’indécis, de morbide qui, d’abord, me fit répondre que je n’avais pas besoin de modèle. Mais la mère ne l’entendait pas ainsi ; elle fut insistante, si menaçante, que de guerre las [sic], je donnai rendez-vous à “Daisy” et à sa terrible mère.“ “One evening in December, it was snowing, I was at home meditating that I have nothing to put ‘for sale’ … the bell rang at my door. A strange woman, veiled, offered me her child as model, saying that I won’t find anyone like her anywhere. Looks like she knew I was in trouble and I need the girl models. The purveyor knocked off a cap covered with snowflakes, and I saw a young girl. I was seized. That little had no age, a tiny but already formed body, an admirable face, green eyes that reminded me of the mistress of Debussy; I don’t quite know what morbid creature in me told at at first that I did not need a model. But the mother did not hear it, and kept insisting, even threatening me [sic!], so I made an appointments with “Daisy” and her terrible mother.” ©© art mirrors art 2014
