Leonor Fini died on the 18th... I guess I'm a little late with this.

Nifty lady...

Fond remembrance...

From the overwhelming response to this... I'd imagine you're
not the only person that doesn't know her.

First off... she was gorgeous. Always a plus.

One of the Surrealists... Designed sets, illustrated
the story of O and a few versions of DeSades books.
Did some costume stuff. Her drawings are wonderful.
Considering the size of the library you have handy...
you can probably find a book or two about her.

The Art Institute of Chicago put out a book called
"Women in Surrealism" Has a nice write-up about her.

Excuse me if this is a brainless question, but who was she?
I'd like to know about her, never actually heard of anyone
'cept my aunt & I named Leonor, even if it is a different
spelling...
