From Nell Gwynn to Vivian Ward, the Julia Roberts character in the film Pretty Woman, the figure of the prostitutes has seduced or pitiful the audience along the history.
So, Why one of the oldest profession is still such interesting in fashion, art and films ?
On September 22nd 2015, at the
Musee d'Orsay in Paris I show one of the most interesting exhibition about this subject: "Splendour and Misery", a fascinated collection of important french and foreign artists, who were atracted and involved in prostitution in the most different ways and artistic techniques.
So, let me show you one of my favourites paintings, collections, films pictures, which were represented the woman as an object of seduction and the fashion as well.
