"At seventeen, Victorine Meurent abandons her old life to become immersed in the Parisian society of dance halls and cafeś, meeting writers and artists like Baudelaire and Alfred Stevens. As Manet's model, Victorine explores a world of new possibilities and stirs the artist to push the boundaries of painting in his infamous portrait Olympia, which scandalizes even the most cosmopolitan city"--Dust jacket flap.
