Important Information

Talk: New book ‘Misia: Queen of Paris’

 

 

Audience: Adults

 

 

Misia Sert, a fiery, flame-haired, kittenish muse, lauded for her wasp-waist, sulky pout, and, legend says, the finest legs in Paris. She was the beguiling touchstone for the most gifted circle of Parisian artists: Proust, Picasso, Matisse, Debussy, Diaghilev, Nijinsky, etc. She was known as ‘Queen of Paris’. Proust called her “terribly naughty, delightfully kind…a fairy godmother one moment, and a witch the next, frightfully malicious and adorably generous.”
